Hydrogen Storage
Hydrogen Storage.
Compressed-hydrogen storage in mobile, packaged and containerised formats for flexible supply at the point of use.
New Zealand Hydrogen’s storage range provides nominal capacities from 11 kg to 340 kg, with 200-bar and 400-bar options. The available formats include towable trailers, compact modules and larger containerised systems.
Storage can connect local hydrogen production with refuelling, fuel cell power, industrial processes, trials and remote applications. The appropriate product depends on the required hydrogen quantity, delivery pressure, refill method, transport plan and operating schedule.
Every installation requires application-specific engineering, compliant connections and safety controls. Nominal capacity does not by itself define how much hydrogen will be usable by downstream equipment.

Capacity and Pressure
Match Storage to the Duty
Required capacity is determined by consumption, refill frequency, reserve and the pressure needed by the receiving equipment.
A larger nominal capacity can extend operating time or reduce collection and delivery frequency. Higher pressure can increase the quantity stored within a similar physical format, but it also affects compression energy, equipment selection, refill time and connection requirements.
Usable capacity may be lower than the nameplate quantity because gas cannot always be transferred below the minimum inlet pressure of the downstream equipment. Temperature, pressure equalisation and the transfer method also affect the amount available in practice.
Select storage from the complete operating cycle: how it is filled, moved, connected, emptied and returned for refill.
Storage Formats
Mobile, Modular or Containerised
The physical format should fit the way hydrogen moves through the customer’s operation.
- Trailer systems. Towable storage can collect hydrogen from a compatible source and move it directly to the point of use.
- Compact modules. Smaller packaged systems suit controlled sites where space is limited or hydrogen demand is modest.
- Medium modules. Higher-capacity packages can provide more autonomy while remaining easier to position than a full container.
- Containerised storage. Larger systems support substantial fixed or transportable reserves and can simplify lifting, protection and site integration.
Transportability does not automatically mean that every system can be moved while full. Gross mass, lifting points, dangerous-goods requirements, road rules and approved handling procedures must be confirmed for each configuration.
Safe Integration
Engineer the Complete Storage System
Hydrogen storage must be integrated with the fill source, site, controls and downstream equipment.
Project planning should confirm gas quality, maximum and minimum pressures, expected flow rate, connection type, isolation, pressure relief, earthing, impact protection, ventilation, separation distances, hazardous-area requirements and emergency response.
The installation also needs a clear operating procedure covering filling, transport where applicable, positioning, connection, leak checks, use, disconnection, inspection and maintenance. Equipment certification and regulatory requirements must be established before supply.
New Zealand Hydrogen can help define the duty, compare capacities and formats, and coordinate storage with hydrogen production, dispensing or fuel cell power equipment.
