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. Dozens of solar farms in the country’s southeastern region are slated to use “ hydrogen batteries ” in coming years. Lavo’s hydrogen battery aims to capitalize on both energy trends, Yu said.

Stanford researchers develop new electrolysis system to split seawater into hydrogen and oxygen

Green Car Congress

A Stanford-led team has developed a new electrolysis system to split seawater in hydrogen and oxygen. Existing water-splitting methods rely on highly purified water—a precious resource and costly to produce. Electrolysis of water to generate hydrogen fuel is an attractive renewable energy storage technology.

Energy researchers: clean US hydrogen economy is within reach, but needs a game plan

Green Car Congress

Addressing climate change requires not only a clean electrical grid, but also a clean fuel to reduce emissions from industrial heat, long-haul heavy transportation, and long-duration energy storage. Hydrogen and its derivatives could be that fuel, argues a commentary by four energy researchers in the journal Joule.
