Hystorsys

Hystorsys AS provides hydrogen compressors and storage systems based on metal hydrides. The company is a spin-off from the Institute for Energy Technology (IFE, Norway), a leading research institute on metal hydrides for more than four decades. Both our hydrogen storage and hydrogen compression solutions are based on a reversible chemical reaction of hydride-forming metals or alloys with hydrogen gas resulting in the formation of metal hydrides (MH). Exothermic hydrogen absorption reaction evolves heat, while hydrogen desorption from the metal hydride is an endothermic process causing cooling of the system. The direction of this chemical reaction depends on both temperature and pressure of the system.
