In these circumstances, natural gas (NG) suppliers are reconsidering the procedure to accommodate the gas from the distribution grid to the consumption points’ requirements. This work proposes an innovative method for adjusting the natural gas from the grid to the consumer pipeline requirements in a full-scale pressure reduction station.engAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Ciencias, ingeniería y diseñojournal article10.3390/en16134840open accessRecursos de gasConsumo de energíaIndustria del gasGoal 7: Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energyGoal 9: Build resilient infrastructure, promote sustainable industrialization and foster innovationGoal 11: Make cities inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable
