Dr. Stuart Licht ( earlier post ) at George Washington University is developing a solar-driven process that, he says, could efficiently replace current industrial processes for the production of certain energetic molecules such as hydrogen, metals and chlorine, which are responsible for a large component of anthropogenic CO 2.

If taken from such sources, hydrogen is a fossil fuel, and is not a renewable resource. In addition, it is subject to similar refining, storage and distribution costs currently associated with petrol and diesel, including upstream CO2 emissions where the electricity required is usually generated from fossil fuels.

Solar thermal energy decreases the energy required for the endothermic conversion of carbon dioxide and kinetically facilitates electrochemical reduction, while solar visible energy generates electronic charge to drive the electrolysis. It would be preferable if this effort results in useable, rather than sequestered, resources.

For EVs, much of the environmental burden centers on the production of batteries, the most energy- and resource-intensive component of the vehicle. Then there is the fuel cycle—the activities associated with producing and using the fuel or electricity to power the vehicle through its working life. But coal use varies, even within China.
