Underground Thermal Energy Storage

Underground Thermal Energy Storage (UTES) is the seasonal storage of heat and/or cold into a portion of the underground that is generally performed using a shallow geothermal system. Underground thermal energy storage (UTES) is a form of STES useful for long-term purposes owing to its high storage capacity and low cost (IEA I. E. …

Underground hydrogen storage: A critical assessment of fluid …

Underground hydrogen storage (UHS) is the injection of hydrogen into the geologic porous medium for subsequent withdrawal and reuse during off-peak periods to contribute to the energy mix. Recently, UHS has gained prodigious attention due to its efficiency for the storage of hydrogen on a large scale.
