Problems with Current Hydrogen Storage Technology and Transportation

The most significant hurdle in global hydrogen energy development lies in the realms of storage and transportation. Discovering secure, cost-effective, efficient, and practical methods for storing and transporting hydrogen is essential for the widespread adoption of hydrogen energy throughout its entire life cycle. This encompasses both storing hydrogen gas and transporting hydrogen energy.

Problems with Current Hydrogen Storage Technology and Transportation

Leakage and Permeation: Hydrogen molecules are very small and can easily leak or permeate through storage and transportation materials.
Safety Concerns: Hydrogen is highly flammable and can explode when mixed with air.
Material Compatibility: Hydrogen can embrittle materials, causing them to become more fragile over time.
Cost: Current sto

Problems with Current Hydrogen Storage Technology and Transportation

Hydrogen Embrittlement

Hydrogen embrittlement is a critical consideration in industries such
as aerospace, automotive, and oil and gas, where high-strength materials are used, and it can affect the integrity and safety
of components and structures.

NEW HYDROGEN STORAGE AND PIPELINE TECHNOLOGIES

VSens Inc. Technologies

The U.S. Is Back in the Paris Agreement. Global greenhouse gas emissions need to be reduced by 50% within the next decade, down to zero in less than 30 years, based on the Paris Climate Agreement (signed by 196 countries).

We need the proper hydrogen storage and delivery infrastructure for a sustainable energy system, providing non-polluting energy with zero greenhouse emissions.

The biggest hurdles for the transition to hydrogen as a clean energy carrier are the high costs of its storage and transportation and the risk of dangerous leakage and combustion.

The high-pressure hydrogen containers (~700 brs) are very expensive, and dedicated pipelines are very rare around the world for the same reason.

One possibility to rapidly expand the hydrogen delivery infrastructure is to adapt the natural gas delivery infrastructure to accommodate hydrogen. Since these pipelines aren’t built for hydrogen, the current idea is to mix hydrogen with natural gas. Several projects worldwide are demonstrating blends with hydrogen concentrations as high as 20%, but there are safety and serious technical concerns to overcome:

Hydrogen atoms can make steel more brittle, eventually risking ruptures and explosions
Hydrogen permeation and leaks. Due to its small molecular size, hydrogen can easily pass through materials. For example, hydrogen leakage from a car tank in a garage could create the conditions for an explosion

Our patented solution guarantees the safety, reliability, and cost-effectiveness of transporting and storing pure hydrogen in both newly constructed and retrofitted storage containers and pipelines.
