Geological Hydrogen Storage Finland
Summary
A research paper analyzing the potential of geological hydrogen storage in Finland to manage excess renewable energy, finding it could reduce carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 69% and decrease reliance on fossil fuels and electricity imports.
Key insights
- Researchers used the LEAP-NEMO modelling toolkit to evaluate geological hydrogen storage as a solution for managing excess energy in Finland's grid, which is caused by the intermittent nature of wind power and the addition of solar power during summer months.
- The study's calculations indicate that implementing hydrogen storage would result in an approximately 69% decrease in carbon dioxide emissions, while also lowering the reliance on electricity imports and power generated from fossil fuels.
