BEIJING, (Reuters) - China’s CNPC said that it will build 23 more gas storage facilities and expand 10 existing ones by 2030.
The state energy group will build six regional gas storage centres across China, where the facilities will be located, in the next 12 years, according to a statement published on the company’s website.
The plan was part of China’s efforts to secure supplies of natural gas during peak demand season over winter.
