Noticed lots of discussion around Hydrogen lately. One serious challenge with hydrogen that I was unaware of until recently and find very interesting - Hydrogen Embrittlement. A complex chemical process which can weaken steel and cause all kinds of problems. (Thread 1/7) #OOTT

While new to me, it's not new to the researchers and scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy who've been studying and working on the problem for many years. (Thread 2/7)

So I'd like to share some of DOE's hydrogen research that I've found helpful and interesting (Thread 3/7)
