Solothurn, 3 March 2023 – Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is very important in terms of ensuring a secure supply of energy from natural gas. On the one hand, it offers an alternative to natural gas imports from Russia, while on the other hand it can be used to generate electricity locally in combined heat and power (CHP) plants. The latter aspect can also help stabilise the power grid if the electricity supply from conventional power stations gets too low. Regio Energie Solothurn is now incorporating LNG into its gas supply network for the first time.
