European Energy Markets- What is EU gas storage at right now in 2026?
- AGSI+ data showed EU gas storage at 28.92% on 9 April 2026, the lowest for that date since 2018. Germany was the worst performer at 23.32%.Source: GIE AGSI+
- How do I read the GIE AGSI+ dashboard?
- AGSI+ shows working gas volume as a percentage of total storage capacity, updated daily for each EU member state and aggregated for the whole EU.
- What is the EU gas storage target for winter 2026?
- The European Commission reduced the mandatory storage target from 90% to 80% for the 2026 season, citing low starting levels and refill cost pressures.Source: European Commission
Background
Gas Infrastructure Europe (GIE) is a Brussels-based association representing operators of gas transmission systems, storage facilities, and LNG terminals across Europe. Its AGSI+ (Aggregated Gas Storage Inventory) dashboard is the primary public source for EU gas storage fill-rate data, updated daily and cited by the Commission, traders, and media. On 9 April 2026, AGSI+ showed EU storage at 28.92% — the lowest level for that date since at least 2018. GIE also operates the ALSI (Aggregated LNG Storage Inventory) dashboard, which tracks LNG terminal sendout and inventory across member countries.
GIE was founded in 2005 to promote integrated European gas infrastructure and facilitate energy security. Its members include the Major storage and transmission operators in Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands, and Austria, covering most of the EU's physical gas infrastructure. The association lobbies on regulation, grid codes, and hydrogen transition policy.
The AGSI+ data feeds directly into European Commission decisions: the storage obligation regulation (2022/1032) sets legally binding fill targets, and the shortfall visible in GIE data in April 2026 drove the Commission's decision to reduce the mandatory target from 90% to 80% for the 2026 season.
