hydrogen storage technologies

Hydrogen storage technologies are methods used to hold hydrogen safely and efficiently for later use. Common approaches include compressed gas tanks, which store hydrogen under high pressure; liquid storage, where hydrogen is cooled to a very low temperature to become a liquid; and solid-state storage, such as metal hydrides that absorb hydrogen into materials. Each method balances factors like capacity, safety, weight, and cost. These technologies are crucial for hydrogen fuel applications, like transportation and energy, ensuring that hydrogen can be stored securely and used efficiently when needed.
