Transitioning to hydrogen as a major energy carrier could greatly reduce greenhouse gas emissions and lead to more resilient and diversified energy systems. Nonetheless, this transition requires substantial innovation and investment in cleaner production methods, efficient storage systems, and supportive infrastructure.
Hydrogen storage offers several opportunities that make it an attractive option for energy storage and distribution. Some of the opportunities for hydrogen storage are. 1. Decarbonization: Hydrogen storage can improve energy security by enabling the storage and distribution of energy from diverse sources.
Hydrogen storage plays a pivotal role in harnessing and transporting hydrogen as an energy carrier. Diverse techniques have been devised to securely and effectively store hydrogen. Below is an overview of contemporary hydrogen storage methods, as depicted in Figure 19. The main hydrogen storage methods.
The findings demonstrate that incorporating an energy storage system (ESS) can cut operational costs by 18 %. However, the utilization of a hydrogen storage system can further slash costs, achieving reductions of up to 26 % for energy suppliers and up to 40 % for both energy and reserve suppliers.
The environmental benefits of hydrogen storage technologies heavily depend on the method of hydrogen production. Green hydrogen, produced using renewable energy sources like wind or solar power through electrolysis, is considered environmentally friendly as it avoids carbon emissions associated with traditional production methods.
Frequent cycling process may lead to the degradation of hydrogen storage, therefore safe and reliable storage is pivotal in maximizing hydrogen energy. Although, hydrogen is clean energy the methods employed for production and storage of hydrogen are not environmentally friendly.
