So basically it is like a very porous, high surface area, nanosponge. Therefore, increase in temperature or changes in pressure would prompt hydrogen release.

How would you then go about releasing the stored hydrogen from the tubes? Fascinating. How would you then go about releasing the stored hydrogen from the tubes?
