1. Specifications for hydrogen transport and storage materials
1.1 Background to the development of a hydrogen transport and storage sector
In the face of growing energy demand and depleting fossil fuel resources, hydrogen is a relevant alternative energy carrier that can effectively complement electricity . More than just a vector, it can also be used as an energy storage medium, adding another dimension to the hydrogen sector. The context and relevance of hydrogen fuel cell development...
