A reservoir made in a porous and permeable underground formation can be used to store Natural Gas, CO 2, Air, Hydrogen or even Thermal Energy. Storage of an energy carrying fluid requires a phase of compression and injection in gaseous state into the reservoir: the free-phase gas pushes the formation water away from the injection wells.
Thermal and thermodynamics properties and behaviour of the rocks should also be considered as part of the studies developed when evaluating large-scale underground energy storage reservoirs.
After identification of the existing geological reservoirs, the feasibility of adopting a specific storage technology will be a function of a techno-economic analysis. Understanding which factors will influence more this techno-economic analysis will vary with the storage technology.
One way to ensure large-scale energy storage is to use the storage capacity in underground reservoirs, since geological formations have the potential to store large volumes of fluids with
