Temporary H2 Compression
Gasunie is working on the HyStock project near Zuidwending, a first large-scale hydrogen storage facility in Northwest Europe. The location is situated on a salt dome that is ideal for underground hydrogen storage. From the end of 2027, it is expected that the first cavern and a new above-ground installation will connect to the developed H2 grid. To temporarily desalinate the cavern, Gasunie is seeking a temporary debrining solution via hydrogen injection. The consultation focuses on determining the best way to obtain this temporary solution. The expected service life of the compressor is 6 to 12 months, depending on the availability of the units.
