The Role Of Hydrogen Transportation Technologies And Reticular Materials In Building Resilient Supply Chains
As the hydrogen demand grows, establishing efficient and suitable infrastructures for hydrogen storage, transportation and distribution becomes essential to support the scale up of the hydrogen economy.
Despite some incremental improvements over the past decades, current technologies for hydrogen transportation fall short of meeting cost targets and display some important limitations that may hinder their adoption on a larger scale. Overall, hydrogen transportation remains a relatively expensive and inefficient step in the hydrogen supply chain – and yet, the most crucial one to enable the hydrogen economy.
This white paper provides a comprehensive overview of the hydrogen transportation challenge, analyzing and comparing the main technologies for hydrogen transportation and exploring a novel approach based on nano-engineered reticular materials.
