据能源经济7月16日消息称，SSE的子公司英国SSE Thermal和挪威石油和天然气公司 Equinor 表示，他们正在制定计划，在东约克郡海岸的现有储气站储存氢气。
这个被称为阿尔德伯勒(Aldbrough)的地方，由9个地下盐穴组成，这些盐穴将被转换成储存氢。
两家公司表示，该项目将于 2028 年完成，预计容量至少为 320 吉瓦时，可能需要建造更多的洞穴。
从化石燃料中产生的气态氢已在地下洞穴中储存多年。
该基地将用于储存来自汉伯地区的氢，汉伯地区正在开发一个低碳氢中心。从21世纪20年代后期开始，氢气将用于供热、工业和运输市场。
氢，如果使用可再生能源生产，是一种低碳燃料，被几个国家吹捧为一种大幅减少温室气体排放的方法。
但成本仍然很高，基础设施匮乏，而且由于氢气的密度低于天然气，必须在工业场所或汽车燃料补给站安全压缩、储存和分配。
两家公司表示，虽然阿尔德伯勒工厂最初将储存为Keadby氢电站提供燃料而生产的氢，但它将使越来越大的氢野心成为可能，包括从本世纪20年代末开始，供应包括供热、工业和运输在内的不断扩大的承购市场。
使用可再生能源生产的氢气是通过电解完成的，它将水分解成氢气和氧气。

SSE, Equinor plan to store hydrogen at UK gas storage site
Britain's SSE Thermal, part of SSE and Norwegian oil and gas company Equinor said they are developing plans to store hydrogen at their existing gas storage site on the East Yorkshire coast.
The site, called Aldbrough, consists of nine underground salt caverns which would be converted to store hydrogen.
The project, due to be completed by 2028 with an expected capacity of at least 320 gigawatt hours, might require additional caverns to be built, the firms said.
Gaseous hydrogen produced from fossil fuels has been stored underground in caverns for many years.
The site would be used to store hydrogen from the Humber region, where a low-carbon, hydrogen hub is being developed. The hydrogen would be used for the heat, industry and transport markets from the late 2020s onwards.
Hydrogen, if produced using renewable energy, is a low-carbon fuel and is being touted by several countries as a way to dramatically cut greenhouse gas emissions.
But costs are still high, infrastructure is lacking and as hydrogen is less dense than natural gas and must be safely compressed, stored and dispensed at industrial sites or refuelling stations for vehicles.
The companies said that while the Aldbrough facility would initially store hydrogen produced to fuel the Keadby Hydrogen Power Station, it would enable growing hydrogen ambitions, including supplying an expanding offtaker market including heat, industry and transport from the late 2020s.
Hydrogen produced using renewable power is done by electrolysis, which splits water into hydrogen and oxygen.
