As Needed: Hub Season
Hub Season is the key to balancing fluctuations in demand – for a good season: Your natural gas is stored physically and remains your property at all times. This allows you to optimally ensure supply to your customers. The quickest configuration offers a 1.4-fold turnover of your stored natural gas volumes. Use the practical standard configuration or customize your own individualized product easily using easystore.
