Hi,
Here is your answer,
Basic principle of hydrogen economy is transportation and storage of energy in the form of liquid or gaseous hydrogen. Hydrogen is a gas at room temperature.
However, by cooling and applying high pressure, gaseous H₂ can be converted into liquid H₂ which has much smaller volume and hence can be transported easily. Thus, the basic property of hydrogen, which is useful for hydrogen economy is that it can be converted into a liquid by cooling under high pressure.
Hope it helps you !

Hii
Here is your answer -
Liquid H2 can be stored relatively easily and safely in cryogenic tanks. It is also feasible to transport liquid H2 by road or rail tankers. It can also be stored in underground tanks and transported by pipe-lines. However, it may not be convenient to store liquid H2 in a home or in a car since its boiling point is very low. The only alternative left is to store H2 in a metal or in an alloy as interstitial hydride. The gas can be released on mild heating. A different approach involves reacting theH2 with certain metals to produce hydrides which when reacted with water produce hydrogen which can be burned.
