Lochard Energy is investigating H2RESTORE, a new project aiming to generate hydrogen from surplus renewable energy.

Renewable energy isn’t always reliable because it depends on the weather.

H2RESTORE could make renewable energy available year-round by producing hydrogen and storing it underground in depleted Lochard Energy gas fields. Hydrogen could then be extracted and used to generate power when needed.

The Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) dedicated $2 million funding for an 18-month Feasibility Study to investigate and assess viability.
