Squeeze, freeze, or bond? Unpacking hydrogen’s storage dilemma
Hydrogen has long been viewed as a future fuel thanks to its potential to decarbonize sectors like long-distance transport and high-heat industrial processes. But its physical properties—a little hydrogen takes up a lot of space—make the element a nuisance to store and transport.
Our latest emerging space brief on hydrogen storage details the technological approaches, such as compression, low-temperature liquid storage, and chemical carriers, as well as the limitations and outlook for the segment.
