LNG, cryogenic, and GreenER™ insights.
Plain-English engineering and commercial perspective from New Energy Development — covering LNG bullet tanks, cryogenic gas handling, peak-shaving LNG, marine LNG bunkering, hydrogen storage, and the permitting decisions that shape every project.
Peak Shaving vs. Buying More Pipeline Capacity: How Utilities Actually Compare the Two
A gas utility facing winter demand spikes has two real options: contract for more pipeline capacity year-round, or store LNG on site and vaporize it on the coldest days. Here is how the comparison actually works.
What Is Peak Shaving (and Why Utilities Need It in 2026)?
Peak shaving lets a gas utility meet winter demand spikes without buying year-round pipeline capacity. Here's what it is, how LNG peak shaving works, and why it matters in 2026.
GreenER™ LNG Bullet Tanks: No Extraction Pumps, No Bottom Penetrations — and What That Means for Permitting
The GreenER™ LNG tank design is built around four documented improvements that change the math on peak-shaving LNG projects. Here's what they are, why each one matters, and how they map to industry standards like 49 CFR 193, API 620, and API 610.
