Want to know more about the future of hydrogen storage in the East Midlands?
Hydrogen is a key technology for the UK’s net zero targets, driving clean power, industrial decarbonisation, and economic growth. To reach the 9.5TWh of demand forecast for the East Midlands by the mid-2030s, hydrogen storage is a critical piece of the puzzle. Over the past year, the EMStor (East Midlands Storage) Consortium has been exploring how depleted hydrocarbon fields can be repurposed to unlock large-scale geological hydrogen storage for the East Midlands.
Join EMStor on Friday 28th March, 12pm-3pm at the British Geological Survey, Keyworth, Nottinghamshire for a FREE event and networking lunch. They’ll share key findings from EMStor’s Alpha Phase investigation and discuss the future of hydrogen storage in the East Midlands.

About EMStor
The EMStor Consortium is led by Cadent, Star Energy, Edinburgh University, British Geological Society (BGS) and has grown to include Uniper, National Gas and Centrica,
In 2024, EMStor identified that hydrogen storage is a crucial component of a resilient hydrogen system in the East Midlands and that the leading hydrogen storage technologies are subsurface geological hydrocarbon fields that have come to the end of their productive lives. This provides an opportunity to repurpose the fields to store hydrogen. Research is funded from Ofgem’s Strategic Innovation Fund (SIF), managed by Innovate UK.
