The optical switching properties of gadolinium-magnesium hydride have been demonstrated in a solid-state electrochromic device. With positive polarization of the hydride electrode, the visible reflectance approaches 35\% with virtually zero transmission, while with negative polarization, the visible transmission exceeds 25\% at 650 nm. The switching is reversible, with intermediate optical properties between the transparent and reflecting states.
