Study suggests new strategy for storing hydrogen, using natural gas as stabilizer

Green Car Congress

A recent study has suggested a new strategy for storing hydrogen, using natural gas as a stabilizer. For the efficient storage and transportation of hydrogen, numerous materials have been investigated. As a result, they succeeded in stably storing the hydrogen-natural gas compound in hydrates.

HyMethShip seeks to fuel ship engines with hydrogen from methanol

Green Car Congress

The remaining carbon dioxide is stored in the tank and reused in onshore methanol production. According to the European Environment Agency (EEA), maritime transport is responsible for more than 3% of the total carbon emissions in the European Union. In 2019 alone, emissions reached 144 million tonnes of CO 2. © Fraunhofer.

Hydrogen Battery "Sponges" Store Solar for the Grid

Cars That Think

A novel project in Australia aims to harness the sun’s energy in two different ways: by storing it and by using it to produce green hydrogen. Operators can use the systems to store energy from solar panels and deliver power to the grid during cloudy days or at night. million metric tons produced in 2019.

Mitsubishi Power & Texas Brine partner on large-scale salt cavern storage for hydrogen to support decarbonization efforts in the eastern US

Green Car Congress

This collaboration expands Mitsubishi Power’s capability to store hydrogen safely and cost effectively in salt caverns in strategic locations across North America. Hydrogen has been stored in salt caverns for decades in the US Gulf Coast. Brine, a mixture of salt and water, is produced during the solution mining of salt formations.
