Summary
Japanese researchers have developed a low-temperature hydrogen battery that operates at just 90°C, overcoming previous limitations of high-temperature requirements and low capacity. The device uses hydride ions moving through a solid electrolyte with magnesium hydride as the anode, enabling repeated hydrogen storage and release at full capacity. This breakthrough addresses key hydrogen storage challenges and could enable practical hydrogen-powered vehicles and clean energy systems.
