Costain, the infrastructure solutions company, has been selected by Storengy UK to design the Keuper Gas Storage Project, an underground hydrogen storage facility in Northwich, Cheshire. The project will involve 19 salt caverns and various hydrogen treatment facilities to store approximately 400 million cubic meters of hydrogen. Costain's multi-disciplinary engineering team will work on front-end engineering and design contracts to support the development of this facility. The first phase will focus on solution mining, while the second will handle the gas storage facilities required for the HyNet system in the Northwest of England and North Wales. The completion of Costain's work is expected by 2026, contributing to Storengy UK's investment decision for the project. Both companies are positive about the project's impact on energy resilience, economic prosperity, and decarbonization in the region and beyond. Costain's expertise in gas storage facilities and hydrogen infrastructure positions them well to deliver safe, sustainable, and crucial storage systems for the hydrogen economy's growth and a greener future.
