H2 Storage Systems

H2 Storage Systems

H2 Storage Systems

Hydrogen can be stored physically as either a gas or a liquid. Storage of hydrogen as a gas typically requires high-pressure tanks (350–700 bar [5,000–10,000 psi] tank pressure). Storage of hydrogen as a liquid requires cryogenic temperatures because the boiling point of hydrogen at one atmosphere pressure is −252.8°C.

Gaseous H2

Gaseous H2

A hydrogen tank (other names- cartridge or canister) is used for hydrogen storage.
Metal Hybride Storage

Metal Hybride Storage

SOLID-H hydrogen storage containers are filled with metal powders that absorb and release hydrogen (metal hydrides).
Liquid H2

Liquid H2

Hydrogen can be physically stored as either a gas or a liquid. Storage as a gas typically requires high-pressure tanks (5000–10,000 psi tank pressu...
