Novel Catalyst Enables Solar Energy Fuel Cell Storage




MIT researchers develop catalyst that supports solar energy conversion of water into hydrogen and oxygen, enabling a fuel cell approach to energy storage. ...
... "Nocera and Matthew Kanan, a postdoctoral fellow in Nocera's lab, have developed an unprecedented process that will allow the sun's energy to be used to split water into hydrogen and oxygen gases. Later, the oxygen and hydrogen may be recombined inside a fuel cell, creating carbon-free electricity to power your house or your electric car, day or night. " ...
