The success of commercial hydrogen production systems equally depends on product gas storage and filling for transport as it does on the process technology, regardless of the feedstock source or production method. Key design aspects – including selection of transport containers, loading cycle times, operational logistics, site layout, and safety requirements – have significant impacts on both capital and operating expenses. Early identification of hydrogen filling and storage functionalities, as well the associated costs, allow these variables to be accounted for in the overall project plan.
