In Bulgaria, Renewables Now reported that German energy service provider EWE plans to connect its gas storage site in Ruedersdorf, near Berlin, to the hydrogen core network that is being developed throughout Germany. The report noted that EWE has entered into a memorandum of understanding with gas grid operator Ontras Gastransport which outlines plans for connecting the site to the hydrogen start-up network in eastern Germany. EWE said that it is already testing the option to store hydrogen on a small scale in an underground cavern in Ruedersdorf. The company is also evaluating the conversion or construction of new caverns at the location, the report added. The site may be also utilized to provide storage for hydrogen production projects around Lubmin on the north coast of Germany.
