The underground reservoirs for large scale energy storage are described. An extensive review of the criteria for site screening underground reservoirs is done. Large-scale underground energy storage technologies and reservoir types are matched. General criteria to all reservoir types are assessed.
A reservoir made in a porous and permeable underground formation can be used to store Natural Gas, CO 2, Air, Hydrogen or even Thermal Energy. Storage of an energy carrying fluid requires a phase of compression and injection in gaseous state into the reservoir: the free-phase gas pushes the formation water away from the injection wells.
In depleted hydrocarbons reservoirs it is necessary to maintain about 50 to 60% of the gas exiting the formation as cushion gas . There are several technologies that can be a viable option for underground energy storage for each of these reservoirs types.
Choosing what technology best fits each type of underground reservoir depends on many factors, such as the purpose of the energy storage facility, the geology of the reservoir in question, the efficiency of the technology, and also the economics of the pair reservoir/technology.
The identification of potential porous media reservoirs for underground energy storage should consider multiple factors, including geology type and caprock properties, depth, closure, permeability and porosity . 4.3.1. Depleted Hydrocarbon Reservoirs
