hydrogen storage and transportation

Hydrogen storage involves capturing hydrogen gas and keeping it in a stable form, such as compressed gas in high-pressure tanks, liquid hydrogen at very low temperatures, or solid-state storage within materials. Transportation typically employs pipelines, specially designed containers, or converted vehicles to move hydrogen safely and efficiently. Because hydrogen is lightweight and flammable, ensuring proper containment, safety measures, and infrastructure is essential. Advances aim to make storage and transport more cost-effective and efficient, supporting hydrogen’s role as a clean energy carrier for fuel cells, industrial use, and energy storage.
