Forms of hydrogen produced using fossil fuels such as coal or natural gas, resulting in unmitigated carbon emissions.

Naturally occurring hydrogen gas found underground, distinct from manufactured hydrogen sources. The Albanian deposit contains 84% pure H2 with trace amounts of methane and nitrogen.

Innovative measurement program deployed to detect and quantify dissolved natural hydrogen in geological formations at various depths.

Grand-Est (Lorraine mining basin, Eastern France)

A research and development project about Lorraine gas resources carried out by the University of Lorraine and CNRS in partnership with FDE. The project deployed innovative measurement programs to detect and quantify natural hydrogen in geological formations.

An exclusive mining exploration permit applied for by FDE to search for and explore natural hydrogen in the Lorraine mining basin. The permit covers 2,254 square kilometers in the Grand-Est Region.

A planned pilot site to be identified and built in the Grand-Est Region for locally producing and recovering natural hydrogen based on exploration results from the Trois-Évêchés Permit.
