Session 8: Underground Storage / Storage of Hydrogen and Carbon Dioxide

08 Oct 2025

Session Chairs:  Willow Liu, MEDENG; Varun Pathak, Computer Modelling Group

This session will examine hydrogen storage, particularly in the context of integrated blue/grey hydrogen production, with a focus on subsurface storage options such as salt caverns and depleted reservoirs. The physics associated with subsurface storage and deliverability of the stored hydrogen on-demand will also be considered. The discussions will highlight how coupling hydrogen storage with carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) can enable scalable, low-carbon hydrogen systems in Western Canada.

Presentations:
Operational and Commercial Aspects of Underground Hydrogen Storage
Basker Murugappan, New Mexico Tech

An Update on Field Trials of Hydrogen Storage in Canadian Salt Caverns: Recent Progress and Challenges
