Lower Saxony aims to play a leading role in the utilization of georeservoirs, with national and international visibility. By pooling the activities of leading scientific and technical state institutions and companies, the aim is to address unresolved research challenges that have so far been an obstacle to the sustainable and economic use of Lower Saxony's unique geological features.
The technical feasibility, optimization and opportunities for gas and heat storage as well as geothermal use will be investigated using the Geoenergy Lab Burgwedel as an example. To this end, we will initially create a 3D model of the Geoenergy Lab Burgwedel based on available data. By carrying out experimental investigations in the laboratory and by numerical simulation studies, we will identify risks and optimize gas and heat storage.
The aim of the research platform is to improve the supply of energy from photovoltaics and wind power by storing it as thermal and chemical energy in porous formations. We aim to reduce uncertainties and risks in order to provide economically and ecologically viable options. Work on the platform's projects will be carried out at the research site near Burgwedel and the results will be transferable to other sites with similar geological conditions.
This platform is part of the research program "Transforming the Energy System Lower Saxony" (TEN.efzn).
