However, Lithium-Ion Batteries (LIBs) appear to be more promising than Lead-Acid Batteries because of their higher energy and power densities, higher overall efficiency and longer life cycle [31, 32]. Chemical energy storage involves the generation of various types of synthetic fuels through power-to-gas converters [33].

It does this by shedding light on a
This positions hydrogen as a clean and versatile energy carrier that could complement or replace lithium-ion batteries. Solar energy can be stored as hydrogen through a process called electrolysis, where electricity from solar panels splits water into oxygen and hydrogen gas. The hydrogen gas can then be stored under pressure, or in a metal

Among the candidates are LOHCs, which can store and release hydrogen using catalysts and elevated temperatures. Someday, LOHCs could widely function as "liquid batteries," storing energy and
While hydrogen fuel cells are better at addressing seasonal supply/demand issues, lithium-ion batteries are more effective for balancing hour-to-hour and day-to-day fluctuations. That''s true today, and it would still be true in 2050, as Wu and Giovanniello predict the cost of hybrid-storage microgrids would have fallen by 55.4 per cent then.
A hydrogen energy storage system requires (i) a power-to-hydrogen unit (electrolyzers), that converts electric power to hydrogen, (ii) a hydrogen conditioning process (compression or liquefaction), (iii) a hydrogen storage system, and (iv) a hydrogen-to-power unit (e.g., fuel cells or hydrogen fired gas turbines). Hydrogen can be stored in gaseous form in tanks or as liquid in

On the surface, it can be tempting to argue that hydrogen fuel cells may be more promising in transport, one of the key applications for both technologies, owing to their greater energy storage density, lower weight, and smaller space requirements compared to lithium-ion batteries.
Stored hydrogen in the form of compressed gas can be distributed in dedicated pipelines over a long distance, while the liquid stored hydrogen can be transported in tankers by rail, ship or road to the urban area.
