    • The intermittency and low controllability of renewable energy power generation often lead to a mismatch between power supply and demand, which in turn leads to wind abandonment. Power-to-gas (PtG) is a technology that firstly makes full use of excess electrical energy to produce hydrogen (H2) by electrolyzing water, then synthesizes methane (CH4), by combining with carbon dioxide (CO2). Combined with geological storage technology, PtG based subsurface energy storage is expected to become the one of future effective energy storage technology options. However, it is difficult to avoid the mixing of CO2 and CH4 when they are stored in the same reservoir. If stored in different reservoirs, a large amount of CH4 has to be used as cushion gas to maintain the necessary pressure of the reservoir, which causes a large amount of energy loss. Therefore, in this paper it innovatively proposes a new geological energy storage system by using hydraulically connected reservoirs. A three-dimensional multiphase flow model including the wellbore-reservoir injection-production system is established by using reservoir software MUFITS. The process of using hydraulically connected reservoirs for geological energy storage and fluid migration is studied. The advantages of the energy storage model through the production of CO2 and CH4 production wells are quantitatively analyzed. It is found that during the injection stage of cushion gas, the injected fluids move up rapidly and migrates laterally along the overlying layer, the spatial distribution range of CO2 saturation is in a controllable range. In addition, according to the established injection and production rate, the pressure response of the CO2 target reservoir is more moderate than that of the CH4 target reservoir. The overall pressure surge of the reservoir can be weakened due to easy compressibility of CO2. In the process of geological energy storage in hydraulically connecting reservoirs, interaction of pressure between connecting reservoirs has a significant effect on increasing the production of CO2 and CH4.
