The aim is to establish a state-of-the-art national research facility for hydrogen flow in porous media. Large amounts of underground hydrogen storage (UHS) capacity is available in depleted hydrocarbon reservoirs and saline aquifers. Hydrogen injection into geological formations can trigger geochemical and geomechanical processes that damage reservoirs and breach their integrity and seal capacity. UHS modelling is necessary to understand the governing mechanisms throughout storage–withdrawal cycles. The LIEF facility will enable site-specific experiments on hydrogen flow in porous media. This will enable Australia to make technological breakthroughs in critical areas of the economy, such as clean energy.

目的是建立一个最先进的国家多孔介质氢气流动研究设施，在枯竭的碳氢化合物储层和盐水含水层中提供大量的地下储氢能力，可以触发向地质层注入氢气。破坏储层并破坏其完整性和密封能力的地球化学和地质力学过程对于了解整个存储-提取循环的控制机制是必要的，LIEF 设施将能够对储层中的氢气流动进行特定地点的实验。这将使澳大利亚能够在清洁能源等关键经济领域取得技术突破。
