The current review report is focused on a comprehensive and in-depth comparative analysis of various hydrogen storage methods, with a major focus on the enhancement of the performance of the material which is suitable for solid-state hydrogen storage applications. 1. Introduction

What is solid-state hydrogen storage?

As discussed, hydrogen is a promising clean energy carrier with the ability to greatly contribute to addressing the world's energy and environmental challenges. Solid-state hydrogen storage is gaining popularity as a potential solution for safe, efficient, and compact hydrogen storage.

Are solid-state hydrogen storage materials economically feasible?

To be economically feasible, solid-state hydrogen storage materials must exhibit long-term stability and endurance. Comprehensive studies that analyze the deterioration processes of storage materials under real-world settings, including temperature fluctuations and cycling, are lacking in the literature. 6. Conclusions and future perspectives

How can we improve hydrogen storage capacities and kinetics in solid-state materials?

To improve hydrogen storage capacities and kinetics in solid-state materials, future research should strive to uncover novel sorption processes such as quantum effects and confinement. Scalable manufacturing procedures must be developed to move solid-state hydrogen storage from the laboratory to real-world applications.

What are the different types of solid-state hydrogen storage materials?

Nowadays under investigation are metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), metal-doped metal organic frameworks, covalent organic frameworks (COFs), clathrates, nanostructured carbon materials, metal-doped carbon nanotubes, and complex chemical hydrides as solid-state hydrogen storage materials .

What are the challenges of solid-state hydrogen storage?

The main challenges using solid-state hydrogen storage are either related to the high hydrogen discharge temperature (around 350 °C in the case of magnesium hydride), the slow reaction kinetics or last but not least the challenges on the reactor level, e.g., gas distribution and thermal management.
