One of the challenges of constructing a global hydrogen economy is hydrogen transportation by sea. However, hydrogen is a particularly challenging product to transport safely. The process is divided into four main steps: hydrogen regasification, solid air transportation, hydrogen liquefaction, and liquid hydrogen transportation.
