Objectives
Abstract In a hydrogen future, additional gas storage will be required to meet increasing demand and futureproof against evolving green applications of hydrogen and its hydrides. PATCH will provide the future hydrogen system with an economic and safe long-term storage solution for hydrogen, which is imperative in removing Britain's dependence on natural gas. PATCH will provide a synergetic solution, leveraging industrial by-products for chemical hydride production, storage, regeneration, and network injection. Using waste energy/gases from industry and excess renewable electricity, to produce chemical hydrides, helping deliver Britain's net zero commitments by 2050.
