OT- Hydride Storage of Hydrogen I did go through all three pdf's, after posting, of course ;-) I think they've made some incremental improvements. The idea of putting the fuel cell inside a canister of hydrides to capture the waste heat made some sense. So did the solar hydride battery, which was what got me to reading about hydrides back in early 90's in the first place. Solar energy cells naturally produce DC current at the voltages required for electrolysis, so it just makes too much sense if you can figure a way to store the hydrogen. Even with the improvements, I think it's still shy of cost effective. I wasn't able to translate the charts and diagrams into a clear understanding of the pressures and temperatures involved in the charge/discharge cycle, nor truly comprehend the power storage capabilities. If they capture the mindshare of the autoproducers and hydrogen resalers, they will do well. But it seems to me that most of the work in mobile applications is focused on reforming Methanol or Gasoline. This is just a quick once over
