A significant advantage that hydrogen has over all other energy storage approaches is scalability. As such there is a growing international interest in using <i>hydrogen carriers</i> for several applications that require the ability to store and supply energy at large scales or for extended periods of time. Our group is investigating concepts to match up the appropriate hydrogen carriers with a range of use cases that need MWh of energy, e.g., emergency backup power for critical infrastructure, or need to supply energy for extended periods of time, e.g., microgrids. In this presentation we will describe our efforts to define metrics and set limits for a wide range of off-board applications that will be enabled with appropriate hydrogen carriers.
