The injection restrictions for storage year 2023-2024 are illustrated in the figure below.
Withdrawal restrictions
- 85% of the withdrawal capacity is available when the storage filling is at or below 1,969 GWh (20% full),
- 75% of the withdrawal capacity is available when the storage filling is at or below 1,477 GWh (15% full),

SY 2022 - 2023 1st update
Injection restrictions - updated due to increasing of the marketable storage capacity from 9231 GWh to 9573 GWh by incremental injection during November 2022, cf. Daily Auctioning November 2022.
Prior to the Daily Auctioning in November 2022, the marketed volume capacity has been just below the injection restriction level associated with filling level 9231 GWh. Therefore, GSD has announced that there will be no Injection Restrictions in storage year 2022-2023. However, with the additional injection of Natural Gas released in the daily auctions in November 2022, the Injection Restrictions will be activated when the filling level reaches 9573 GWh. The activation of the Injection Restrictions will be announced by GSD in due time.
