"H2EU+Store" is an international industry partnership founded by RAG Austria AG to accelerate the market ramp-up of green hydrogen in Central Europe. The initiative is structured as an integrated project by looking at the entire value chain (from production, transport and storage and including the consumer market) of the future hydrogen market.

RAG Austria AG

Hydrogen from renewable energy will be produced in Ukraine and stored for seasonal demand in Central Europe in the future. The focus of the H2EU+Store project is ramping up and accelerating production of green hydrogen for use in Europe, as part of the climate-neutral energy future.

RAG Austria AG

Large-volume storage of hydrogen enables energy transition while maintaining security of supply. With "Underground Sun Storage", the world''s first hydrogen storage facility in an underground porous reservoir, RAG Austria AG – Renewables and Gas – and its project partners are setting new international standards.
