Ancient Queensland salt caverns could become Australia’s clean-energy backbone

Geoscience Australia’s $31 million drilling of the Adavale Basin in outback Queensland identifies the Boree Salt deposit as thick enough to form underground caverns by dissolving salt, creating a storage space for hydrogen (or compressed air). This geological-scale energy reserve could store around 6,000 tonnes of hydrogen per cavern (~100 GWh), potentially powering tens of millions of homes for a day with a handful of caverns, complementing intermittent renewables.

Revolutionary Hydrogen Storage Method: Safe, Easy, and Affordable

Researchers at the RIKEN Center for Emergent Matter Science in Japan have discovered a perovskite compound that can safely and easily store ammonia, which is an important carrier of hydrogen. The compound undergoes a chemical reaction with ammonia at room temperature and pressure, allowing for efficient storage and retrieval. This discovery offers a cost-effective and practical solution for storing hydrogen, which is crucial for transitioning to a decarbonized society.
