Hydrogen Storage in European Subsurface

Hydrogen storage opportunities

This map synthesises the final outcomes of the Hystories project. These data are based on the following sources:

  • Porous media trap capacity data computation details are given in Hystories report D2.2-1_3D Multi-realization simulations for fluid flow and mixing issues. Please refer to it for methodological details.
  • Levelized Cost Of Storage (LCOS) and Suitability mark details are given in Hystories report D7.3-1 – Ranking and selection of geological stores. Please refer to it for methodological details.
  • Porous media shapes and other attributes are given by Hystories’ Geological Geographical Information System, and details being given in Hystories D1.4-0 report. Please refer to it for details.
  • Salt deposit shapes are displayed with the permission of SMRI and details are given in: Horváth, P.L., Mirau, S., Schneider, G.S., Bernhardt, H., Weiler, C., Bödeker, J., Wippich, M., Tangermann, T., Ratigan, J., 2018.
