Artificial Photosynthesis for Rooftop Green Hydrogen Production

Research and development

The process of separating water into hydrogen and oxygen using energy, in this case, from solar cells.

A process being researched to replicate natural photosynthesis for the production of alternative fuels like hydrogen. It aims to give alternative fuels the strength needed to break the world's reliance on fossil fuels.

A rooftop-installable device made from 3D-printed commodity plastic coated with aluminum that produces hydrogen through artificial photosynthesis without requiring solar tracking.
