JemgumH2 – Energy storage of the future

SEFE plans to build a cavern storage facility for hydrogen

Storage facilities are an important part of the future hydrogen economy.
SEFE plans to utilise the existing salt dome in Jemgum to construct three new caverns, each with a cavity volume of 500,000 m³.

Existing plant components are to be utilised for the construction process (brining).
An above-ground facility for the injection and withdrawal of hydrogen will be built and connected to the H2 core network.

The total investment will be in the mid three-digit million euro range. An environmental impact assessment with public participation will be carried out as part of the authorisation process.
