Abstract: Perovskite hydrides are promising materials for hydrogen capacity application to achieve the US DOE on-board criteria. We have investigated novel perovskite hydrides XZrH3 (X: Mg/Ca/Sr/Ba) for H2 storage and transportation applications. In this study we investigates the physical properties of XZrH3 light materials for solid-state hydrogen storage application by incorporating the DFT framework with the CASTEP code. We have theoretically examined the structural, mechanical, electronic, optical, and hydrogen storage properties of these materials. The selected compounds were fully relaxed and optimized in the cubic phase space group Pm-3 m. Structural phase stability was confirmed through thermodynamic, and mechanical analyses. Mechanical properties, evaluated based on Poisson?s ratio, the Puagh?s ratio, and Cauchy pressure, indicate the ductile behavior with a preference for ionic bonding. The electronic structure analysis reveals the metallic behavior of these materials. Optical calculations were also performed to provide additional insights into the physical properties of H2 compounds. The gravimetric hydrogen storage capacities were calculated as 2.55, 2.25, 1.66, and 1.31 wt% for MgZrH3, CaZrH3, SrZrH3, And BaZrH3 hydrides respectively. The identified properties of XZrH3 suggest that these materials could significantly enhance hydrogen storage systems, with potential integration into existing energy technologies, offering a pathway toward more efficient and sustainable hydrogen-based solutions.
