availability of hydrogen storage
Hydrogen storage involves capturing and holding hydrogen gas so it can be used when needed. Currently, it can be stored in high-pressure tanks, as a liquid at very low temperatures, or within solid materials called metal hydrides. Each method involves trade-offs between safety, cost, and energy efficiency. While storage options are advancing, challenges remain in developing large-scale, safe, and cost-effective solutions for wide adoption—particularly for transportation and power applications. Ongoing research aims to improve storage methods to make hydrogen a practical, reliable energy carrier for the future.
