Can hydrogen storage be scaled up in the Netherlands?

The Dutch government, in it’s recently published ‘Energy Storage Roadmap’, also refers to large-scale underground hydrogen storage as an important and necessary technology to be scaled up in the Netherlands from 2030. Hydrogen can be stored underground in salt caverns - cavities created by salt mining - and in depleted natural gas fields.

Where can hydrogen be stored underground?

Hydrogen can be stored underground in salt caverns - cavities created by salt mining - and in depleted natural gas fields. Currently, steps are undertaken towards the development of four salt caverns for underground hydrogen storage in the northeast of the Netherlands.

Will Underground hydrogen storage be needed in depleted gas fields?

Underground hydrogen storage (UHS) in depleted gas fields will likely be necessary for the future energy system to balance the mismatch between energy supply and demand.

Can a notional hydrogen storage facility be built in the Netherlands?

In this paper, the Roden gas field is considered as a potential case for the design of a notional hydrogen storage facility in the Netherlands. Different scenarios are considered for the reservoir, with a base case working volume storage of 0.78 bcm (2.3 TWh). For each scenario, a detailed cost analysis is carried out.
