Welding Solutions for the Transportation and Storage of Gas and Liquid Hydrogen

Hydrogen is the answer to guarantee stable energy production for renewables.

In fact, hydrogen is well known as a fuel and a feedstock, but it is also projected to become the most popular energy carrier in an integrated cycle connected to the energy produced from renewable sources. For the reasons above, we will need pipelines and tankers for the hydrogen transportation, as well as tanks for the storage. Hydrogen transportation and storage can be in gaseous or liquid state. Each form brings challenges for the choice of materials used. voestalpine Böhler Welding is developing and proving a suitable welding consumables portfolio matching the requirements for this new industry challenge that will be part of our future.
