Research demonstrates that activated carbon could store hydrogen at room temperature

Research demonstrates that activated carbon could store hydrogen at room temperature: With hydrogen atoms consisting of just a single electron and single proton, its gaseous form made up of two hydrogen atoms can be hard to contain. Hydrogen storage, along with hydrogen production and the lack of infrastructure, remains a major stumbling block in efforts to usher in hydrogen as a replacement for hydrocarbon-based fuels in cars, trucks and even homes.
