Intriguing. But does this technology share the pitfalls of making ethanol from corn, or of hydrogen "energy" in that they simply move the energy use elsewhere, possibly at greater cost than they provide in the end use? How much energy is needed to mine and smelt the nickle used in these devices? Hydrogen stored at 50 atmospheres seems energy-intensive and potentially problematic. What is the overall COP of these devices, including the upstream energy inputs?
