Gas pipeline from Bristol Port to storage facility given green light
Liquid petroleum gas (LPG) supplier Flogas Britain has been granted planning permission to construct a gas pipeline from Bristol Port into an above-ground storage terminal near the city.
The storage facility was formerly owned by National Grid and has been a feature of the local landscape for several decades. It was previously only able to store liquefied natural gas (LNG) but Flogas is planning to convert the plant into an LPG and green gas storage plant, with the capacity to hold 34,564 tonnes.
