An Overview of Hydrogen Storage Methods

Hydrogen is an attractive, pollution-free energy carrier, which is characterised in addition by a flexible and efficient energy conversion. Technology of hydrogen production is well developed and has advantage of practically unlimited basis of the raw materials. However, low density of hydrogen gas, low temperature of its liquefaction, as well as high explosive risk in combination with its negative influence on the properties of design materials bring to the forefront the problems of the development of effective and safe hydrogen storage systems. Namely these problems suppress at present the development of hydrogen power engineering and technology.
