Or you can use a financial instrument futures. I never bought futures, just learned about it in university. But there you agree to a future price, so akin to storing it.

If everyone agrees that the price will go up but nobody can buy and store it, the futures price will actually be higher than today's price.
Future is a contract with delivery in the future - exactly what this comment is taking about. The future markets for Dec/Jan/Feb have already priced in the storage problem many months ago, you can't obtain them for today's low price.
