Project summary description:
This study assesses the potential for underground hydrogen storage from a systems perspective. Access to viable large-scale storage is a critical component of the hydrogen value chain and will have significant impacts when selecting a location. This work creates an integrated techno-economic and underground storage model for intermittent hydrogen production coupled with storage in a depleted gas reservoir to identify and quantify the limitations of this aspect on an Australia-based hydrogen value chain.
