    The course was amazing. I learned about why hydrogen can be used as a green fuel and about its capabilities to store the energy for long term. It also has challenges such as low volumetric density. The Transporation of the hydrogen is also a major concern and can be effectively transport by using NH3. There are other ways such as liquification and vaporization process. But the hydrogen is very diffusive and also it can change mechanical properties of any material can also cause problems.
