Chemicals that store and move energy made elsewhere rather than being primary sources, namely methanol, a liquid alcohol that can be burned or used in fuel cells, and sodium borohydride, a compound that releases hydrogen on demand. A source belongs here when its cited article describes a chemical used to carry or release energy. It excludes compressed hydrogen gas and ammonia, which are treated on their own, and it is kept separate because these carriers are handled as liquids or solids.
