Abstract This paper reviews state-of-the-art developments in hydrogen energy systems which integrate fuel cells with metal hydride-based hydrogen storage. The 187 reference papers included in this review provide an overview of all major publications in the field, as well as recent work by several of the authors of the review. The review contains four parts. The first part gives an overview of the existing types of fuel cells and outlines the potential of using metal hydride stores as a source of hydrogen fuel. The second part of the review considers the suitability and optimisation of different metal hydrides based on their energy efficient thermal integration with fuel cells. The performances of metal hydrides are considered from the viewpoint of the reversible heat driven interaction of the metal hydrides with gaseous H 2 . Efficiencies of hydrogen and heat exchange in hydrogen stores to control H 2 charge/discharge flow rates are the focus of the third section of the review and are considered together with metal hydride – fuel cell system integration issues and the corresponding engineering solutions. Finally, the last section of the review describes specific hydrogen-fuelled systems presented in the available reference data.

- Complex metal hydrides for hydrogen, thermal and electrochemical energy storage (2017, background): “An additional benefit of thermally integrating CMHs with moderate- and high-temperature FCs is that, by consuming a significant fraction of the waste heat generated, the CMHs could actually improve the thermal control of high-temperature FC stacks [264].”
- Materials for hydrogen-based energy storage – past, recent progress and future outlook (2019, background): “Despite intensive activity in the development of metal hydride hydrogen storage systems, most of them use “lowtemperature” AB5 and AB2 intermetallic hydrides [389] with much lower storage capacities than MgH2.”
- Application of hydrides in hydrogen storage and compression: Achievements, outlook and perspectives (2019, unknown): “Stationary applications that require hydrogen storage in low-temperature metal hydrides (LTMH) have recently been reviewed [11, 32].”
