Critical storage infrastructure is gaining a better idea of its future demand as national hydrogen strategies solidify and production projects get off the ground. With some regions blessed with geological conditions perfect for storing hydrogen underground, others will need to explore alternative options and determine whether gaseous or liquified hydrogen makes most economical and technological sense.

The second edition of this two-day online event will showcase expert opinions on the developments of existing projects, exploring how hydrogen can be best stored at key junctions of the value chain. This conference will delve deep into large-scale storage solutions and facilities including tanks above ground to underground salt caverns and shine light on the latest technical innovations.

This online event is split over two days.

Day 1: Tuesday 24th May 2022 | 15:00 - 16:45 CEST

Day 2: Wednesday 25th May 2022 | 15:20 - 16:45 CEST

Speakers
