Hydrogen Storage Systems Belfast & Northern Ireland

BSH Limited works across hydrogen storage alongside electrochemical compression, purification and bespoke electrolyser power systems within its hydrogen capabilities.

Hydrogen Storage Systems Belfast reflects BSH Limited's work across the hydrogen chain where storage is a key link. BSH's consultancy specialisms include bespoke electrolyser power systems, modular electrolyser manufacturing, hydrogen filling stations, fuel cell, co- and trigeneration systems, and natural gas and hydrogen transportation designs — the surrounding capability within which hydrogen storage sits.

Hydrogen storage covers the vessels and arrangements that hold hydrogen between production and use, whether at an electrolyser site, a filling station or a hydrogen-to-power installation. Because storage sits between production and end use, it is specified against the production rate, the dispensing or generation demand, and the wider hydrogen infrastructure.

Where storage feeds a hydrogen-to-power system, it connects to the fuel cell, co- and trigeneration plant that BSH's specialisms include, and may be served by electrochemical hydrogen compression — a technology BSH has worked with — which compresses hydrogen using an electrochemical process rather than mechanical compression.

Storage within the hydrogen chain

Hydrogen storage is specified as part of the hydrogen chain that BSH's specialisms span — from bespoke electrolyser power systems and modular electrolyser manufacturing through to hydrogen filling stations and fuel cell, co- and trigeneration systems. That breadth lets the storage be matched to the production rate and the dispensing or generation demand rather than specified in isolation.

Compression and purification alongside storage

Where storage feeds downstream hydrogen-to-power or dispensing, electrochemical hydrogen compression can compress hydrogen using an electrochemical process rather than mechanical compression, and hydrogen purification systems can condition the hydrogen for its end use. These technologies sit alongside storage within BSH's hydrogen capabilities.

Natural gas and hydrogen transportation

Natural gas and hydrogen transportation designs are among BSH's specialisms. That gas-handling basis informs the pipework and distribution arrangements that connect storage to the wider hydrogen infrastructure, keeping the storage integrated with production and end use.

How BSH can help

Problem

Hydrogen storage specified without reference to the production rate or the dispensing and generation demand can end up undersized, oversized or at the wrong pressure and purity for its end use. Where storage is procured separately from the electrolyser, the compression and the end-use plant, the interfaces that make the hydrogen chain workable are lost.

Reaction

Uncoordinated hydrogen storage raises project risk, wastes energy in unnecessary compression, and can create compatibility issues at the interfaces between production, storage and use. Project teams developing hydrogen systems need an engineering partner who understands the chain and the integration between the stages.

Solution

BSH works across hydrogen storage alongside electrochemical compression, purification, bespoke electrolyser power systems and natural gas and hydrogen transportation designs within its hydrogen capabilities.
