7.4 SUMMARY
It is clear from the discussion earlier that each material considered for hydro-
gen storage has some strengths and limitations and none can meet all the
desired criteria and target requirements yet. Compared with hydrogen gen-
eration and utilization, hydrogen storage faces more and greater challenges.
Further research and development are needed, both in the experimental and
theoretical fronts, to meet these challenges. Some fundamental issues still
need to be addressed systematically at the atomic level in relation to both
the thermodynamics and kinetics of hydrogen adsorption and desorption.
