Centrica Plc increased capacity at UK’s biggest gas storage site, providing a bigger safety cushion for next winter that will also help keep prices in check.
After additional works, the Rough facility will be able to store as much as 54 billion cubic feet of the fuel compared with 30 billion before, Britain’s biggest energy supplier said Friday. The facility reopened last year amid the energy crisis, but at just a fifth of its former capacity. Centrica warned that the nation is still lagging behind other major nations in its ability to store the commodity.
