Green Hydrogen H2 News

In a stride towards a cleaner and more sustainable energy future, Virginia Tech has been granted a substantial $1.5 million by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to explore the potential of storing hydrogen underground within depleted gas fields in the Appalachian region. This visionary endeavor could revolutionize the energy landscape by harnessing the vast storage capacity offered by the subsurface, eliminating the need for cumbersome above-ground infrastructure. Subsurface hydrogen storage emerges as a pioneering solution that marries innovation with efficiency. Unlike conventional hydrogen storage methods, which often require extensive facilities and space, the concept of storing hydrogen underground leverages…
