R&D is concentrated on low-pressure, materials-based technologies and lower-cost, high pressure tank technologies for hydrogen storage systems to meet performance targets. Three overarching performance targets for onboard hydrogen storage systems are: gravimetric capacity; volumetric capacity; and system cost. kWh/kg (5.5 kWh/kg (7.5
