The present invention concerns a hydrogen store comprising a hydrogenable material, and a method for producing a hydrogen store.

A hydrogen storage composition, a hydrogen storage container and a method for producing the hydrogen storage container are provided. The hydrogen storage composition includes a thermally-conductive material, a hydrogen storage material, and optionally a granular elastic material. The hydrogen storage container includes a canister body and the hydrogen storage composition.
