Students and practitioners such as lectures, teachers, legislators and their aids in the field of energy will find this book invaluable and a practical handbook or guide in the field of
Hydrogen Energy presents all-inclusive knowledge on hydrogen production and storage to enable readers to design guidelines for its production, storage, and applications, addressing the
an overview of the different types of hydrogen storage materials and the properties that are of interest for their practical use; descriptions of the gas sorption measurement methods used to determine these properties, and the
The book "Hydrogen Storage Materials: The Characterisation of Their Storage Properties" by Darren P. Broom admirably presents the latest knowledge and research results on this
The energy storage method using hydrogen involves the conversion of surplus hydropower, wind power, and photovoltaic (PV) power into hydrogen energy and the storage of the generated hydrogen in a tank.
The book then dives into the state of the art in hydrogen storage technology. It covers recent hydrogen storage materials research and hydrogen storage methods, with an emphasis on solid-state techniques. It also reviews codes and standards and explores engineering approaches for creating zero-emission, hydrogen-fueled power systems.
Approximately 5-8% of the energy content related to the lower heating value (LHV) is used for storing hydrogen in metal hydride form. About 10% is required for storage at 200 bar, and 15.5% for storage at 800 bar.
Hydrogen storage is a key enabling technology for the advancement of hydrogen in applications. Once the hydrogen is stored, it can be used for various applications including stationary power, portable power, and transportation. It can also be transported from the point of production to the point of use.
Current technologies, as compressed gas or liquefied hydrogen, comprise severe disadvantages and the storage of hydrogen in lightweight solids could be the solution to this problem. Owing to the limited resources of fossil fuels, hydrogen is proposed as an alternative and environment-friendly energy carrier.
Part of the book series: Green Energy and Technology (GREEN) The problem of storing hydrogen safely and effectively is one of the major technological barriers currently preventing the widespread adoption of hydrogen as an energy carrier and the subsequent transition to a so-called hydrogen economy.
