Fresh calls for lower #gas production at #Groningen after the Dutch region was hit with its largest #earthquake since 2012.
"The gas tap needs to be closed further" says Gerald Schotman, Director of Dutch Petroleum Company (NAM) #gaswinning https://t.co/Ud74ilrSHS
Peak #electricity#demand has been cut to 49GW today and negative surplus #power margins reported yesterday have now been revised higher. https://t.co/hCkOLAQ7ka
Negative surplus power margin now expected tomorrow evening. Forecast #power#demand is revised higher, peaking at 51.6GW at 5pm, while #wind supplies drop below 1.5GW.
Current IUK_Ltd imports to the UK nominated at 65mcm (over 80% of capacity) as above-average #temperatures in Continental Europe curb demand and continue to encourage strong #gas exports
#wind output in UK peaked at over 8GW yesterday but is forecast to drop below 1.5GW for the next few days. This will increase transmission #demand and the use of #gas and #coal in the generation mix
After dropping to 34GW on Christmas Day, peak #power#demand is forecast to rise to 51GW next week as colder #temperatures and low #wind output increase consumption https://t.co/S6HcBjE13a
Cushion #gas at #Rough#storage has dropped below 2TWh but centricaplc has applied to OGAuthority to recover more cushion gas beyond the original 9TWh approved for recovery
Medium-range #gas#storage reserves are up 60% since 21 Dec as low demand during #Christmas holiday period allowed for strong injections. Stocks up from <50% to over 80% full
