Hydrogen storage, part 1

Hydrogen storage categories

Compressed Gas Storage

  • Storage of gaseous hydrogen in compressed gas cylinders is currently the most common form of H2 storage
  • Experience in the field of natural gas storage
  • Significant high pressures (between 200 and 350 bar - 700 bar are under development). LPG tanks (12 bar)
  • For large volumes of stationary storage underground aquifers, salt and rock caverns

Compressed Gas Storage
Hydrogen Gas Cylinders

  • Commercially available steel tanks are available with a volume of 10 to 50 liters and pressure of 100 to 300 bar.
  • Mostly chromium-molybdenum steel
