Hydrogen Transport and Storage

Hydrogen transport and storage involve moving hydrogen from production sites to where it is used and keeping it safe until then. Hydrogen can be stored as a high-pressure gas in special tanks, as a chilled liquid in cryogenic tanks, or absorbed in materials like metals or chemicals. Transportation methods include pipelines, road vehicles, ships, and trains. Effective storage and transport are crucial for integrating hydrogen into energy systems, ensuring safety, minimizing leaks, and maintaining efficiency. Advances aim to make these processes more cost-effective and reliable for widespread use in clean energy applications.
