Abstract: Propane-air storage has been a common choice for natural gas utilities to meet their short-term peak demand energy supply needs and for large industrial customers to supplement or replace standard pipeline supply. Most propane-air peak systems produce propane-air to supplement the natural gas in the system during times of peak demand or when supplies are short, while industrial standby systems are typically used to replace natural gas when supplies are short or prices escalate. There are separate code provisions that govern such plants, dependent upon whether they are utility-owned or used as industrial standby systems. While the AGA Supplemental Gas Committee concerns itself with utility plants, which are governed by NFPA 59, there are occasions when utilities acquire or take over industrial plants and standby systems. In such instances, the rules of NFPA 58 and the different risks attendant to NFPA 58 plants should be reviewed.
