The H2SALT project, led by Team Ingeniería, joins the Basque Hydrogen Corridor (BH2C).

The main objective of H2SALT is to develop an integral system for hydrogen storage in a salt cavern in line with the prevailing geological conditions, and to determine the technical and economic feasibility of such a system for industrial projects. The project scope includes the structural and behavioural analysis of the gas in the cavern, the tubular products for injection-extraction, the auxiliary facilities required to treat the gas upstream and downstream of the cavern, and the development of a business model. H2SALT is a project approved in the PERTE Incentive Programme 4: Challenges in fundamental basic research, innovative pilot projects and training in key enabling technologies, with a resolution date of July 2022. This project will be the result of collaborative work between the different consortium members, namely Team Ingeniería (leader), TTI, Tubos Reunidos, Tamoin, and Iberdrola, in addition to the Energy Cluster and SIDEREX. Within the BH2C, the H2SALT project is included in Vertical 2: Transport, Distribution and Storage. As the leader of this project, the company Team Ingeniería has become a member of the BH2C. Team Ingeniería provides services in different branches of engineering and consultancy, mainly in the sectors of civil works, energy, risk analysis and the environment, with various innovation projects in the areas of hydrogen, hydraulics and civil protection. In the H2SALT project, Team Ingeniería is carrying out the structural and behavioural analysis of the gas in the cavern, and the characterisation of the salt formations on the peninsula. Tamoin has also joined the BH2C as a member of the project consortium. With more than 67 years of experience in Industrial Services Engineering, and focused on meeting customer requirements in different industrial processes, Tamoin is currently fully committed towards moving to decarbonisation and energy efficiency. In the project, Tamoin is responsible for defining the specifications and requirements of the external equipment and auxiliary systems (compressors, control systems, cooling and purification systems, etc.) for hydrogen injection and extraction in caverns, and for the conceptual design of the injection and extraction system.
