Vattenfall builds underground rock cave for hydrogen storage The pilot project aims to decarbonise steel and iron production Image: Shutterstock Swedish renewable energy company Vattenfall, steel firm SSAB and mining group LKAB have started building an underground rock cavern storage facility for ‘fossil-free’ hydrogen gas in Sweden. The 100 cubic metre hydrogen storage, which is expected to be operational from next year, is being built in a rock cave approximately 30 metres below ground. The so-called HYBRIT project aims to decarbonise iron and steel production and create a completely ...

Multi-million dollar hydrogen storage project announced Published 7th April, 2021 by Matthew Moggridge The three companies developing the joint initiative HYBRIT project – SSAB, LKAB and Vattenfall – have commenced building a rock cavern storage facility for fossil-free hydrogen gas on a pilot scale. The facility will be located next to HYBRIT’s pilot facility for direct reduction in Luleå, North of Sweden. According to Swedish steelmaker SSAB, the move is an important step in the development of a fossil-free value chain for fossil-free steel. An investment cost of just over SEK 250 mi...
