GM Joins Sandia in Hydrogen Storage

摘要

General Motors Corp. and Sandia Na-tional Laboratories have launched a partnership to design and test an advanced method for storing hydrogen based on metal hydrides. Metal hydrides-formed when metal alloys are combined with hydrogen-can absorb and store hydrogen within their structures. When subjected to heat, the hydrides release their hydrogen. In a fuel cell system, the hydrogen can then be combined with oxygen to produce electricity.
