Zusammenfassung:The present invention describes a method and system for storing soluble gases in permeable geological formations which promotes the dissolution of CO 2 and other soluble greenhouse gases in brine or water at the level of said formations and it in turn allows recovering energy from the non-soluble gases by extracting them from the system if the gases are formed by CO 2 plus other at least non-soluble gases. The storage is improved if the permeable geological formation is an aquifer by previously extracting water or brine from the latter. Dissolution with different mechanisms is favored.
