As representative technologies, high-pressure gaseous storage, low-temperature liquid hydrogen, hydrogen-rich liquid compounds, and solid-state materials based hydrogen storages are briefly introduced, including their
Hydrogen storage is vital for energy, transport, and industry, using methods like compressed gas, liquid hydrogen, and chemical storage to safely store hydrogen efficiently.
Hydrogen emerges as a promising solution for energy storage due to its clean nature and ability to be produced and used without harmful emissions. Its versatility and integration potential with renewable sources make it a valuable resource for the future of the energy sector.
Hydrogen energy storage is another form of chemical energy storage in which electrical power is converted into hydrogen. This energy can then be released again by using the gas as fuel in a combustion engine or a fuel cell.
Hydrogen has the highest energy per mass of any fuel; however, its low ambient temperature density results in a low energy per unit volume, therefore requiring the development of advanced storage methods that have potential for higher energy density.
This comprehensive review paper provides a thorough overview of various hydrogen storage technologies available today along with the benefits and drawbacks of each technology in context with storage capacity, efficiency, safety, and cost.
Depending on functionality, hydrogen storage technologies may be classified into five major groups: (1) high-pressure gas storage, (2) liquid hydrogen, (3) physically bound hydrogen, (4) chemically bound hydrogen, and (5) hydrolytic evolution of hydrogen [11].
Hydrogen is among the technologies with the greatest potential for seasonal energy storage in the future. Learn how hydrogen energy storage works, different means of utilizing hydrogen for energy storage, and other applications.
