#GeoscienceAustralia has identified a thick salt deposit in outback Queensland's #Adavale Basin as a potential underground #hydrogenbattery.
The Adavale Basin sits below the towns of Quilpie, Blackall and Charleville, and the largest underground freshwater reservoir in the world — the #GreatArtesianBasin (GAB).

Underground 'battery' deep in the outback could power millions of homes
They are older than the dinosaurs and buried deep underground, but scientists are pinning their hopes on ancient salt caverns to solve Australia’s green energy storage problem.
