Better and more cost-efficient production methods for energy storage are increasingly in demand, especially in Germany: All major automobile manufacturers have launched ambitious electric vehicle programs that will ensure a sharp rise in demand for batteries. So far, German companies have been purchasing the cells for this purpose in Asia.

A group of researchers from China and Japan has identified a key inhibitor to hydrogen desorption in magnesium hydride (MgH 2 ) solid-state hydrogen storage materials. Currently, hydrogen is stored by three methods: high-pressure gaseous hydrogen storage; low-temperature liquid hydrogen storage; and solid-state hydrogen storage.

Last, tunability: the reduction potential and solubility of AQDS can be further optimized by introduction of functional groups such as –OH. These features lower the capital cost of storage chemicals per kilowatt hour, which sets a floor on the ultimate system cost per kilowatt hour at any scale. —Huskinson et al.
