In the context of the Sustainable Energy Week, taking place in Brussels on 24-28 June 2013,this workshop will focus on the use of hydrogen as a mean to store energy both in the short term, for grid balancing, and in the long-term for system stability. Following a snapshot on the future needs for electricity storage in Europe, the workshop will showcase results of four innovative European projects: HyUnder, GRHYD, Myrte and INGRID. Each project addresses a variety of key challenges ranging from large scale hydrogen storage, to grid balancing, power-to-gas and valorisation of energy storage for sustainable mobility. These projects count with the support of European Institutions and National governments, as well as the active involvement of leading European industry players such as Air Liquide, Areva, EDF, E.On Gas, GDF Suez, Shell and Solvay.
