Geological Hydrogen Storage Finland

Researchers used the LEAP-NEMO modelling toolkit to evaluate geological hydrogen storage in Finland as a solution for the intermittent nature of wind power and summer over-generation from solar power. The analysis indicates that implementing hydrogen storage could significantly reduce carbon dioxide emissions, the reliance on fossil fuel-based power, and the necessity for electricity imports.

• The use of geological hydrogen storage in Finland is estimated to result in a carbon dioxide emissions decline of approximately 69%, while also decreasing the reliance on electricity imports and fossil fuel-based power generation.
• Finland faces energy grid challenges due to the intermittent nature of wind power and a combination of wind and solar power over-generation during summer months when electricity demand is lower.
