Liquid ammonia is easy to transport and packs a lot of energy, with one nitrogen and three hydrogen atoms per molecule. This discovery paves the way for sustainable, low-cost hydrogen that could be produced locally rather than in massive centralized plants. —co-author Naomi Halas. —Peter Nordlander, co-author.

The cathode and electrolyte chemistries elucidated here propel the development of magnesium batteries and would accelerate the adoption of this low-cost and safe battery technology. We tackled this by turning our attention to the solvent in order to reduce its binding to the magnesium ions and improve the bulk transport kinetics.

Salt caverns such as the one depicted here could provide a low-cost solution for the geologic storage of hydrogen. Such storage options, Dedrick said, are needed to realize the full potential of hydrogen for transportation. Even so, Los Angeles’ modeled costs are significantly less than those for Detroit and Pittsburgh.
