A new UGS salt cavern at Carriço in Portugal, is planned to be build and to be commissioned in 2022 with a working volume of 58mcm. Carriço UGS is based on caverns leached in a salt dome. Surface plant includes the facilities for injection and withdrawal of natural gas from the caverns in operation. The capacity of the UGS in the Bages area in Spain was not considered in the TYNDP 2017.
