The energetic and climate crises should pose a challenge for scientists in finding solutions in the field of renewable, green energy sources. Throughout more than two decades, the search for new opportunities in the energy industry made it possible to observe the potential use of hydrogen as an energy source. One of the greatest challenges faced by scientists for the sake of its use as an energy source is designing safe, usable, reliable, and effective forms of hydrogen storage. Moreover, the manner in which hydrogen is to be stored is closely dependent on the potential use of this source of green energy. In stationary use, the aim is to achieve high volumetric density of the container. However, from the point of view of mobile applications, an extremely important aspect is the storage of hydrogen, using lightweight tanks of relatively high density. That is why, a focus of scientists has been put on the use of carbon-based materials and graphene as a perspective solution in the field of H2 storage. This review focuses on the comparison of different methods for hydrogen storage, mainly based on the carbon-based materials and focuses on efficiently using graphene and its different forms to serve a purpose in the future H2-based economy.

AbstractCorrosion of biodiesel-filled fuel tanks has become a major problem in the use of biodiesel as a new green energy source. The ionic liquid 1-Hexyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide [C10H19N2]+[C2F6NO4S2]− was used to control corrosion of C-steel in non-edible biodiesel to resolve this problem. The anti-corrosion and antioxidant properties of the [C10H19N2]+[C2F6NO4S2]− were characterized using weight loss, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, total acid number measurements beside SEM and EDX analysis. The findings show that [C10H19N2]+[C2F6NO4S2]− plays an important role in preventing C-steel corrosion in biodiesel with an efficiency close to 99 percent. The adsorption capability and antioxidant properties of [C10H19N2]+[C2F6NO4S2]− are the major contributors to the ionic liquid's anti-corrosion properties. We anticipate that this work will help to sustainable expand the use of biodiesel as a renewable energy source.

The alarming energy concerns have stimulated a transition of energy sources to a more sustainable way. Among all of the green energy sources, solar is the most promising one. Recently, a new application called photovoltaic/thermal panels that harvest both long-wavelength and short-wavelength radiations has been gaining attention. Evidence shows that the combined system is more efficient than the two separate systems. Its wide range of applications can significantly promote the transition to a cleaner energy source. This work provides an introduction to the PV/T panels and examines the improvement possibilities of the PV/T panels. Challenges and suggestions for future researches will be discussed.


The Solid State Transformer (SST) is the emerging power electronics based key component of distribution system. In this paper a comparison of SST converter topologies with control and modulation techniques is presented. The main focus is on the use of SST for various applications based on the features offered by different converter topologies with different control techniques. The review is carried out by comparing these power electronics topologies based on their structure, advantages, limitations and their control techniques suitable for different applications such as green energy source integration to grid, traction, controlling of electrical machines, use as a Distributed Generators, due to powerful and attractive features of SST. The three stage SST is considered and compared for converter topologies with their control and modulation schemes which will help to identify the suitability of SST for the application
