Hydrogen Storage Using Metal Hydrides – IEA Hydrogen TCP
🧠 What It Means
Hydrogen is stored by bonding with metal alloys.
Reversible absorption/desorption makes it reusable.
Ideal for mobile and portable hydrogen storage.
❗ Key Challenges
Slow kinetics and heat management during hydrogen release.
High weight-to-storage ratio compared to other methods.
Alloy degradation after many cycles.
🦁 Muzaffar’s Comment
“Metal hydrides are like hydrogen sponges — soak it up, squeeze it out, over and over.”
🦉 Sameer’s Comment
“Safer than tanks and more compact — metal hydrides show how smart storage can be.”
