Currently, hydrogen systems come with a high cost and additional production, storage, and transportation challenges. The infrastructure to use and move hydrogen is quite limited at this point. This study discusses hydrogen production-related techniques, storage technologies, and the challenges in hydrogen transportation.
To sum up, TES is proving itself a key tool to face the challenges of energy storage. This allows a decoupling between production and demand and therefore a reduction of the required capacity of the cooling and heating plants, because they can be designed not for the peak cooling demand but for the average demand, reducing the required capacity.
