Monitoring Europe's Natural Gas Reservoirs
In a recent update, the European trade association Gas Infrastructure Europe has released the most comprehensive and current dataset on natural gas storage in European Union (EU) countries. This valuable resource, provided by the Association of European Gas Storage Operators (AGSI) and processed by KYOS, offers detailed and up-to-date information on gas storage facilities across Europe [4].
The dataset provides daily storage fullness levels, withdrawal and injection rates compared to historical averages, minima, and maxima for underground gas storage facilities in EU countries. For those interested in Germany's storage status, the dataset includes key data points such as:
- Current storage fullness percentage relative to historical values.
- Daily injection/withdrawal activity compared with historical norms.
- Trends in storage utilization for the current year.
The KYOS platform integrates this data for trading and forecasting purposes, making it an invaluable tool for those seeking a comprehensive and frequently updated source for natural gas storage in Europe.
While other datasets, like Bruegel's aggregated European gas import and storage data [1][3], provide context on import flows and infrastructure, they are less granular on daily storage status broken down by country. The EUGasSC dataset focuses more on gas supply balances than detailed storage levels per country [5].
For precise numbers or visualizations of Germany's current storage extent, the KYOS website's gas storage module is the primary reference.

In conclusion, for detailed and up-to-date data on natural gas storage across EU countries including Germany, use the AGSI/KYOS underground gas storage dataset available via their platform and website, which reflects real-time storage fullness and operational data [4].
- The AGSI/KYOS underground gas storage dataset, a valuable resource in the European industry, offers detailed and up-to-date data on natural gas storage in various EU countries, such as Germany.
- The KYOS platform, utilized for trading and forecasting, integrates this detailed data from the AGSI/KYOS underground gas storage dataset to provide an invaluable tool in the field of AI and science, particularly for those interested in environmental-science, finance, and energy.
- Comparatively, other datasets offer less granular data on daily storage status, making the AGSI/KYOS underground gas storage dataset a more suitable choice for those seeking precise numbers or visualizations of natural gas storage in individual EU countries, such as Germany.
