"El aumento de la proporción de energías renovables en la matriz energética y los excedentes de electricidad impredecibles asociados causan la necesidad de formas eficientes de almacenamiento de energía. Debido a la alta densidad de energía y facilidad de transporte, el hidrógeno tiene un rol importante como almacenamiento de energía. Después de la producción de hidrógeno por electrólisis y compresión posterior para el almacenamiento, un porcentaje significante de la energía almacenada se usa para la compresión del hidrógeno gaseoso. Eficiencias más altas se alcanzan a través de la electrólisis a alta presión, dado que la compresión posterior del hidrogeno no es necesario. En el curso de una colaboración entre el Institute of Nuclear and Energy Technologies (IKET) y el Instituto Tecnológico de Buenos Aires (ITBA), un electrolizador de alta presiones fue desarrollado en el ITBA. La particularidad de este dispositivo, además de la alta presión, son ventanas de vidrio en las tapas con el fin de poder analizar el comportamiento de las burbujas. Experimentos para investigar el comportamiento de las burbujas han sido realizados en el IKET. Esta tesis de maestría describe el desarrollo del proyecto, desde el diseño y la construcción del electrolizador en el ITBA, hasta la ejecución de primeras series de experimentos en el IKET. Primeras conclusiones sobre el comportamiento de las burbujas de hidrógeno deben ser hechos".
