Welcome to the market survey on hydrogen storage requirements by RWE Storage West GmbH.

The energy system in Germany is facing a major upheaval. In order to achieve climate neutrality, major transformation processes are required to supply Germany with green energy.

Hydrogen is an important energy source of the future. Storage will play a central role in the infrastructure for balancing volatile renewable electricity and hydrogen generation with hydrogen applications. Large-volume hydrogen storage facilities are essential for this.

Our market survey is intended to provide the most consistent, comprehensive and up-to-date information possible on the hydrogen storage requirements of market participants. We therefore ask you, even in the case of initial project ideas, to participate in our market survey and to provide the best possible estimate or description of the parameters surveyed.

Your non-binding feedback will make an important contribution to ensuring that we can develop hydrogen storage systems at the right location to meet future demand and thus offer you customised products.
