Powerhub from Powercrumbs at a gas storage site

Storage and transhipment at the source

Powerhub moves.

The decentralised hub for storage, transhipment and distribution: the node that connects local gas to the places where it's needed.

What the Powerhub does

The junction between source and use

The Powerhub stands at or close to the source. It compresses and stores the gas, plans the Powerbox swaps and closes the mass balance for each period. Without the hub there is no delivery: the hub determines how much gas goes where, and when.

Frequently asked questions

What chain builders ask us about the Powerhub first.

Is the Powerhub always located at the source?

At or close to the source, so the gas only has to be compressed and stored once before the Powerboxes take it away. Exactly where depends on the source and on demand in the area.

Can I use a Powerhub in a chain that I operate myself?

Yes. That's what Equipment is for: the same units and the same proof layer, in your own chain. What that takes in terms of source, demand and logistics, we go through per situation.

What does the hub log?

For every batch of gas the origin and the quantity, for every swap which Powerbox goes where, and for every period the mass balance. Powerpulse brings that together into the evidence file.
