Can formic acid be used for energy storage?
Formic acid (53 g H 2 /L) is a promising liquid storage and delivery option for hydrogen for fuel cell power applications. In this work we compare and evaluate several process options using formic acid for energy storage. Each process requires different steps, which contribute to the overall energy demand.
Is formic acid a hydrogen energy carrier?
Formic acid has been proposed as a hydrogen energy carrier because of its many desirable properties, such as low toxicity and flammability, and a high volumetric hydrogen storage capacity of 53 g H 2 L −1 under ambient conditions. Compared to liquid hydrogen, formic acid is thus more convenient and safer to store and transport.
Is formic acid a hydrogen source?

Is formic acid thermodynamically unfavorable?
The first step, i.e. production of formic acid, is thermodynamically unfavorable. However, the energy demand can be reduced if a formate salt is produced via a bicarbonate route instead of forming the free acid from hydrogen and carbon dioxide.
Why is formic acid better than liquid hydrogen?
Compared to liquid hydrogen, formic acid is thus more convenient and safer to store and transport. Converting formic acid to power has been demonstrated in direct formic acid fuel cells and in dehydrogenation reactions to supply hydrogen for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells.
Is a bicarbonate/formate approach more efficient than a formic acid route?
This bicarbonate/formate approach also turns out to be comparatively more efficient in terms of hydrogen release than the formic acid route even though less energy efficient, catalytic decomposition of formic acid has the advantage of reaching higher volumetric power densities during hydrogen release.
