Hydrogen storage

Because of its low density, hydrogen must be stored compressed in cylinders. These must be pressure-resistant, shatterproof and very tight to prevent hydrogen leakage. Compressing hydrogen itself is energy intensive. Cryogenic storage tanks with liquefied hydrogen are also used for stationary storage.

Fuel cell

The fuel cell converts hydrogen into electricity. A kilogram of hydrogen will give a car a range of around 100 kilometres. Fuel cells are now technologically advanced and safe devices. The relatively high cost of fuel cells has so far prevented mass deployment.

Use of hydrogen in cars

Hydrogen has the highest combustion energy per unit mass of any fuel. A hydrogen car is essentially an electric car that uses the conversion of hydrogen in the fuel cell to generate electricity. The drive is locally emission-free with ample range and fast refueling.

Hydrogen production

We always have to make our own hydrogen and there are different ways of doing this. The least environmentally friendly ones are unfortunately the cheapest. Hydrogen production is one way of storing surplus electricity when renewable power stations are running at full capacity but there is no demand.

Hydrogen safety

Hydrogen safety is a big topic. Like almost any fuel, it is flammable and explosive. Most people immediately think of the Hindenburg airship explosion or the hydrogen bomb. Hydrogen has been used for more than a century in various industries and today's technologies for storing it, for example, are advanced.

Hydrogen in the automotive industry

Although hydrogen is present all around us, it is not found as a separate element. It cannot be extracted like other fuels; instead, it must be laboriously produced from various compounds. Despite its negatives, it is an important energy carrier with great potential.
