Uniper has unveiled a new storage facility for green hydrogen in Krummhörn, Germany, called the HPC Krummhörn project. The initiative, inaugurated by key figures including Lower Saxony's Minister for Economic Affairs and Uniper's CEO, aims to enhance supply security and decarbonisation efforts. The facility, with a pilot cavern capable of storing 500,000 norm cubic meters of green hydrogen, is a pioneering project blending natural gas and hydrogen for storage. Uniper emphasizes the importance of energy storage in ensuring a stable energy system amidst rising renewable energy sources. The project is part of Uniper's strategy to develop commercial hydrogen storage solutions, with substantial investments and support from the government. The initiative aligns with the hydrogen directive to boost the hydrogen economy and advance pilot projects. The strategic location near the North Sea and existing energy infrastructure positions Krummhörn as a crucial player in establishing a robust energy network in Central Europe.
