What is the potential for hydrogen-based energy storage in Denmark?

Bulk physical storage of renewable energy produced gases can act as a longer-term storage solution (hours, days, weeks, months) to help maintain flexibility in a fossil-free energy grid ( The Danish Partnership for Hydrogen and Fuel Cells ). Without the hydrogen scenario, the potential for hydrogen-based energy storage in Denmark will be limited.

Where is energy dome based?

Energy Dome started operations on its first CO2 battery facility in June, in Sardinia, Italy. The company’s battery technology is based on compressed CO2 and requires less space than systems based on compressed air.

Is Denmark a pioneer in wind energy?

Unsurprisingly, Denmark is known as a pioneer of wind energy. Relying almost exclusively on imported oil for its energy needs in the 1970s, renewable energy has grown to make up over half of electricity generated in the country. Denmark is targeting 100 percent renewable electricity by 2035, and 100 percent renewable energy in all sectors by 2050.

How many EES facilities are there in Denmark?

There are currently three EES facilities operating in Denmark, all of which are electro-chemical (batteries). A fourth EES facility – the HyBalance project – is currently under construction and will convert electricity produced by wind turbines to hydrogen through PEM electrolysis ( proton exchange membrane ).
