In the meantime the limited use of hydrogen as an energy storage medium for intermittent renewable sources such as wind energy is being explored. A schematic of a hydrogen energy storage system designed to store power from wind and solar power plants is shown in Figure 10.9. Figure 10.9.
Hydrogen energy storage is one of the most popular chemical energy storage . Hydrogen is storable, transportable, highly versatile, efficient, and clean energy carrier . It also has a high energy density. As shown in Fig. 15, for energy storage application, off peak electricity is used to electrolyse water to produce hydrogen.
1. Storage methods: Finding and implementing efficient and affordable storage solutions is a difficult task. Each method of hydrogen storage – gaseous, liquid, or solid – has benefits and drawbacks. The best way to use will rely on factors such as energy density, safety, and infrastructure compatibility.
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.
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.
Despite the relatively low technology readiness level (TRL), material-based hydrogen storage technologies improve the application of hydrogen as an energy storage medium and provide alternative ways to transport hydrogen as reviewed in Sections 2.4–2.6.
