New Measurement Method Increases Efficiency
The Fluxys LNG Peak Shaving in the back port of Zeebrugge (Belgium) dates from 1978. Here, liquid natural gas, supplied by trucks from the LNG terminal
in the front port of Zeebrugge, is stored. When the gas demand is higher than the primary supply (through pipelines from Norway and Great Britain or
LNG tankers, such as the Methania), the “supply” in the LNG Peak Shaving is “heated” to 2°C and sent into the network.
