Geoscience Australia Explores Adavale Basin for Underground Hydrogen Storage Potential

HYDROGEN

Geoscience Australia is investigating the Adavale Basin in Queensland as a potential underground hydrogen battery site. The project aims to address renewable energy storage challenges and could power millions of homes.

A recent $31 million drilling initiative has collected rock and groundwater samples from the Boree Salt deposit, which may enable the storage of hydrogen deep underground. Initial findings are expected within six months, but local concerns about water safety persist.
