AGL Energy has opened its $310-million Newcastle Gas Storage Facility at Tomago.
The site which has been under construction since August 2012, will improve supply for hundreds of gas users in New South Wales.
AGL Managing Director and CEO, Andy Vesey said the project was delivered on time and on budget.
“It’s a vital asset for the Hunter region and will be used to support gas supplies during times of peak winter demand and if there is a major disruption to NSW gas supplies”, he said.
The 40 metre high tank has the capacity to hold 30,000 tonnes – or 1.5 petajoules – of liquefied natural gas.
