FrHyGe project, an underground hydrogen storage demonstrator
A large-scale demonstrator for underground hydrogen storage in Europe
The FrHyGe project has 4 objectives:
- Converting a natural gas (or brine) salt cavern for hydrogen storage,
- Demonstrating the feasibility of injection and withdraw 100 tonnes of hydrogen over cycles ranging from 1 hour to 1 week in the converted caverns at the Manosque site,
- Studying the market penetration, the value chain and preparing for replication at other sites in France, Germany, and across Europe,
- Assessing the environmental impact, safety, and regulations in preparation for deployment on the GeoH2 (Manosque) and SaltHy (Harsefeld) projects.
As part of the FrHyGe project, Storengy, the project coordinator, and its partners will carry out technical, economic, regulatory, environmental, and safety studies. They will establish a roadmap to deploy the process of conversion and creation of storage caverns as quickly as possible and thus contribute to the creation of a true European hydrogen storage and transport backbone.
