Hydrogen Storage in Caverns 2022 Workshop, London

Energy Research Accelerator

Hydrogen Storage 2022 outlines the vital importance that hydrogen storage in caverns can play in the push towards net-zero

The Geological Society

Energy storage is going to be absolutely central to the timely achievement of Net Zero. That storage will have to be applied over a vast spectrum of times ranging from fractions of a second to many months – and possibly more than a year. Different sets of technology excel at different parts of that time spectrum and for very long duration storage that can charge and/or discharge continuously for weeks at a time, the clear technology favourites are based on storing fuels. Within that subset, storing pure hydrogen in caverns stands out as being the leading candidate because the transformations from primary energy to hydrogen and back to usable energy are so relatively straightforward. This event set out to elucidate some of the key challenges involved in deploying the necessary amounts of hydrogen storage in caverns.EVENT SUMMARYThe event will start with a keynote review of just how much hydrogen storage we are likely to need in the UK – many tens of TWh worth and possibly more.The workshop will examine:<ul><li>How hydrogen storage blends with large-scale compressed air energy storage and other thermo-mechanical energy storage solutions much better suited to shorter timescales than hydrogen.</li><li>The potential in the UK for making salt caverns to store hydrogen</li><li>The technical challenges of storing hydrogen in caverns</li><li>Examination of case studies of hydrogen storage in caverns </li><li>The workshop will conclude with a panel session comprising experts from academia and industry.</li></ul>The agenda and list of speakers can be found at: <a href="https://www.era.ac.uk/Hydrogen-Storage-in-Caverns-2022" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.era.ac.uk/Hydrogen-Storage-in-Caverns-2022</a>
