MgNi2 is an intermetallic compound combining magnesium and nickel, belonging to the family of metal hydride storage materials. It is primarily investigated for hydrogen storage applications in energy systems, where its ability to reversibly absorb and release hydrogen makes it valuable for fuel cell technologies and clean energy infrastructure. The material is largely in the research and development phase rather than widespread commercial production, but represents a promising direction for solid-state hydrogen storage as an alternative to high-pressure gas cylinders.
