Hydrogen Storage System Modeling and Optimization

Dear Colleagues,

The current shift towards sustainable and renewable energy sources has positioned hydrogen as a pivotal element in the global energy transition. However, hydrogen’s versatile potential is limited by challenges in storage and transport, spanning materials science, system design, and environmental impacts. Advanced hydrogen storage solutions are imperative for their broad application in transportation, power generation, and as a renewable energy buffer.

This Special Issue on “Hydrogen Storage System Modeling and Optimization” focuses on pioneering research and advancements in hydrogen storage technology. It aims to feature innovative investigations at the multiscale, i.e., from material to system, alongside fundamental studies, advanced modeling, and optimization techniques. This collection strives to present advanced solutions that bolster hydrogen’s role as a sustainable energy vector, covering both physical (e.g., solid adsorption) and chemical (e.g., ammonia) storage methods. We invite research and review articles from diverse disciplines to enhance understanding and guide future innovation in hydrogen storage systems.

Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Advanced materials and technologies for hydrogen storage: Exploring innovative materials and technologies for advanced hydrogen storage.
• Modeling, simulation, and optimization techniques: Developing and applying multiscale models to comprehend and optimize the hydrogen storage process.
• System assessments: Assessing the safety, risks, economic feasibility, and environmental impacts associated with hydrogen storage systems.
• Case studies on hydrogen storage applications: Demonstrating real-world applications and the practical challenges and successes of hydrogen storage in various sectors.
