However, unlocking the potential of this nature-inspired gas storage approach faces a grand challenge due to the intrinsic slow gas encapsulation in water lattice (called gas enclathration). This kinetics bottleneck has driven active research activities in seeking capable measures to promote gas enclathration. Nevertheless, the technological readiness level of hydrate-based gas storage is rated at the level 3 in a 9-level scale, equivalent to the proven proof of concept. Cutting-edge advancements are critically needed to unlock this potential of gas hydrates for energy and decarbonization applications.
