A total of 43 projects were selected from 79 applications in Portugal’s 2025 energy storage procurement. This included six projects from Spain’s Iberdrola, which secured nearly EUR 20 million in public funding.
Since 2010, Portugal has stored natural gas in six caves built within salt formations in Carriço (municipality of Pombal), making up a useful storage volume of 3.2 million m3. It was recently announced that two new caverns with capacities between 350 and 500 thousand m3 for gas, including H2, will be built.
The costs approach considers three different hydrogen types (grey, blue, green) being based on authors' own calculations and therein applying the energy costs for Portugal in the H2A tool , which correspond currently to different unit production costs.
Simulations of the Portuguese system were carried out using the simulator developed by the ISEL Energy Systems Research Group. This simulator, implemented in GAMS language, performs the unit commitment, economic dispatch, and hydrothermal coordination of the Portuguese power system that minimizes the full operational system costs.
