Abstract

Systems and methods for natural gas storage and transport with a mobile unit, the method including charging a mobile natural gas storage and transport unit with natural gas via adsorption of the natural gas on adsorbent materials disposed within the natural gas storage and transport unit; transporting the natural gas storage and transport unit a distance to proximate a natural gas power generation unit; and discharging the natural gas over time via desorption of the natural gas from the adsorbent materials to power the natural gas power generation unit.
