SUMMARY
This discussion centers on the feasibility of using high-pressure containers for storing hydrogen at 10,000 psi for short durations, specifically 3-4 hours, before converting it to hydride for long-term storage. Participants unanimously agree that while the concept is theoretically interesting, the practical difficulties and inherent dangers associated with high-pressure hydrogen storage make it inadvisable. The consensus emphasizes the risks involved in compressing hydrogen and the complexities of maintaining containment integrity over time.
