The depletion of reliable energy sources and the environmental and climatic repercussions of polluting energy sources have become global challenges. Hence, many countries have adopted various renewable energy sources including hydrogen. Hydrogen is a future energy carrier in the global energy system and has the potential to produce zero carbon emissions. For the non-fossil energy sources, hydrogen and electricity are considered the dominant energy carriers for providing end-user services, because they can satisfy most of the consumer requirements. Hence, the development of both hydrogen production and storage is necessary to meet the standards of a “hydrogen economy”. The physical and chemical absorption of hydrogen in solid storage materials is a promising hydrogen storage method because of the high storage and transportation performance. In this paper, physical hydrogen storage materials such as hollow spheres, carbon-based materials, zeolites, and metal–organic frameworks are reviewed. We summarize and discuss the properties, hydrogen storage densities at different temperatures and pressures, and the fabrication and modification methods of these materials. The challenges associated with these physical hydrogen storage materials are also discussed.

The improvement in the standard of living due to urbanization and industrialization can without a doubt be accredited to the discovery and use of fossil fuels over the centuries. Although this energy source has had a huge positive impact on the human population, the negatives are just as huge. The continuous use of fossil has been detrimental to the environment and has pushed the world into a paradigm shift where green technology has to be implemented. Hydrogen as an alternative source has intrigued many researchers due to its zero emission characteristic and higher energy content compared to traditional energy sources. Fuel cells which use hydrogen as a fuel source, are the fastest growing clean technologies. Fuel cells are used in both stationary and on-board applications. In this chapter, the hydrogen economy and fuel cell technology are discussed in the South African context and whether or not the complete replacement of fossil fuel with hydrogen is feasible or not.
