A quirky story today’s edition of the UK newspaper The Times reports that a company called King Street Energy to develop ten underground salt caverns in the North West of England into an enormous gas storage facility.
The ambitious plans has won backing by the British government, who are looking for ways to increase gas storage facilities in the UK.
At present the UK only has the facilities to store 5% of annual gas consumption whereas France and Germany has enough storage for 20%.
If any of our readers can think of a better or sillier way of storing gas then please leave a comment.
