High-pressure hydrogen storage is a method that involves compressing hydrogen gas to a high-pressure and storing it in a tank or cylinder. This method is currently one of the most practical and widely used hydrogen storage technologies, especially for transportation applications.
One key technology for the advancement of hydrogen technology application is hydrogen storage. Ideal storage technologies require: (1) reversible storage, (2) high efficiency, (3) high gravimetric and volumetric energy densities, (4) enhanced safety, and (5) cost-effectiveness.
Physical-based hydrogen storage means the storage of hydrogen in its compressed gaseous, liquid or supercritical state. This article provides a technically detailed overview of the state-of-the-art technologies for hydrogen infrastructure, including these storage technologies.
Storing and transporting hydrogen for use as a fuel is more difficult and expensive due to its low volumetric energy density (Rivard et al. 2019). Several storage methods can address this challenge, such as compressed gas storage, liquid hydrogen storage, and solid-state storage.
Liquid hydrogen has much higher gravimetric and volumetric density compared with compressed gaseous storage. However, the technique to liquefy hydrogen is much more difficult and consumes more energy than the compression of hydrogen or the liquefaction of other conventional gases. This is mainly due to the fact that
The category of energy consumption focuses on the one hand on the energy required to achieve the storage conditions, such as the electricity used for the hydrogen compression and liquefaction, the energy used to combine the hydrogen with the chemical carriers, etc.
