Finding New Ways to Store & Transport Hydrogen in Support of Renewable Energy
Summary
Hydrogen holds tremendous promise as a medium for storing energy generated by renewable sources such as wind and solar. However, storing hydrogen has traditionally involved very high pressures or very cold temperatures, methods that lead to cost and safety challenges.
In this episode of Green Chem Essential, with host James Rea, Dr. Tom Autrey and his fellow researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory discuss how they are testing new ways to store hydrogen at normal temperatures and pressures. One method involves binding the hydrogen to a chemical medium. Because they’re using a green chemistry approach, the chemicals they’re testing are as benign as baking soda.
This episode includes 1) a 5-minute preview video, 2) a 32-minute video of the full interview... and 3) a soon-to-be-released audio podcast version.
