Short summary
This study explores how rock salt reacts to hydrogen, aiming to support safe underground storage of renewable energy. Lab tests on samples from a potential salt cavern-type site in Spain showed that hydrogen caused no major changes to the rock. Minor effects were limited and did not impact overall stability. These findings help confirm that storing hydrogen in salt formations is a safe and reliable option for future energy systems.
