What is claimed is: 1. A method for the storage of hydrogen comprising: contacting a hydrogen storage composition with a gaseous mixture comprising hydrogen; and irradiating the hydrogen storage composition with radio frequency radiation or microwave radiation in an amount effective to facilitate the absorption, adsorption or chemisorption of hydrogen into the hydrogen storage composition. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the contacting is conducted at a pressure of about 1 to about 100 kilogram per square centimeter. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the irradiating is conducted at about 10 kilohertz to about 300 megahertz. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the irradiating is conducted at about 300 megahertz to about 300 gigahertz. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the irradiating imparts to the hydrogen storage composition an energy of about 0.001 watt/gram to about 1.000 watts/grain. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the gaseous mixture comprises about 50 to about 99 weight percent hydrogen. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the gaseous mixture consists of hydrogen. 8. A method for the storage and recovery of hydrogen comprising: contacting a hydrogen storage composition with a first gaseous mixture comprising a first concentration of hydrogen; irradiating the hydrogen storage composition with a radio frequency radiation or microwave radiation having a first frequency in an amount effective to facilitate the absorption, adsorption and/or chemisorption of hydrogen into the hydrogen storage composition; contacting the hydrogen storage composition with a second gaseous mixture comprising a second concentration of hydrogen; and irradiating the hydrogen storage composition with a radio frequency radiation or microwave radiation having a second frequency in an amount effective to facilitate the desorption of hydrogen from the hydrogen storage composition. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the first concentration of hydrogen is greater than the second concentration. 10. The method of claim 8, wherein the first frequency is not equal to the second frequency. 11. The method of claim 8, wherein the first frequency is equal to the second frequency. 12. The method of claim 8, wherein the contacting a hydrogen storage composition in a gaseous mixture comprising a first concentration of hydrogen is conducted at a first location, and wherein the contacting the hydrogen storage composition in an environment comprising a second concentration of hydrogen is conducted at a second location. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the first location is not the same as the second location. 14. The method of claim 12, wherein the first location is the same as the second location. 15. The method of claim 8, wherein the first gaseous mixture consists of hydrogen. 16. The method of claim 8, wherein the contacting a hydrogen storage composition in a gaseous mixture comprising a first concentration of hydrogen is conducted at a pressure of about 1 to about 100 kilogram per square centimeter. 17. The method of claim 8, wherein the contacting a hydrogen storage composition in a gaseous mixture comprising a second concentration of hydrogen is conducted at a pressure of about 1 to about 300 millimeters of mercury. 18. The method of claim 8, wherein the irradiating is conducted at about 10 kilohertz to about 300 megahertz. 19. The method of claim 8, wherein the irradiating is conducted at about 300 megahertz to about 300 gigahertz. 20. The method of claim 8, wherein the irradiating imparts to the hydrogen storage composition an energy of about 0.001 watt/gram to about 1,000 watts/gram. 21. The method of claim 8, wherein the hydrogen storage composition comprises carbon, aluminides, alanates, carbides, borides, nitrides, borocarbides, boronitrides, silicides, borosilicides, carbosilicides, or nitrosilicides. 22. The method of claim 21, wherein the carbon comprises single wall carbon nanotubes, multiwall carbon nanotubes and vapor grown carbon nanofibers. 23. An energy generating system utilizing the method of claim 8. 24. A land mobile, water craft, an airborne carrier, a space craft or a space vehicle comprising the energy generating system of claim 23. 25. A system for the storage and recovery of hydrogen comprising: a hydrogen generation reactor, wherein the hydrogen generation reactor utilizes radio frequency radiation and/or microwave frequency radiation to recover hydrogen. 26. The system of claim 25, wherein the hydrogen generation reactor is in fluid communication with and down stream of a hydrogen storage composition reactor. 27. The system of claim 26, wherein the hydrogen storage composition reactor is in fluid communication with and downstream of a drying and separation reactor. 28. The system of claim 25, wherein the hydrogen generation reactor is in fluid communication with and up stream or a hydrogen storage composition reactor and further wherein the hydrogen storage composition reactor utilizes radio frequency radiation and/or microwave frequency radiation to store hydrogen. 29. The system of claim 25, wherein the hydrogen generation reactor is in fluid communication with and up stream of a drying and separation reactor and further wherein the hydrogen storage composition reactor utilizes radio frequency radiation and/or microwave frequency radiation to store hydrogen. 30. The system of claim 25, wherein a hydrogen storage composition slurry is transferred to the hydrogen generation reactor from a hydrogen storage composition reactor. 31. The system of claim 25, wherein water is introduced into the hydrogen generation reactor. 32. The system of claim 25, wherein hydrogen is generated in the hydrogen generation reactor by the further use of heat from convective heat and/or conductive heat. 33. The system of claim 32, wherein the convective heat and/or conductive heat comprises fuel exhaust from a PEM cell. 34. The system of claim 25, further comprising infrared and X-rays to facilitate the recovery of hydrogen.
