Sparc Hydrogen to test photocatalytic water splitting (PWS) reactor at CSIRO

Green Car Congress

The Sparc Green Hydrogen process combines concentrated solar (CS) with photocatalytic water splitting. This testing has shown a hydrogen production and efficiency benefit from exposing certain photocatalyst materials to concentrated light and heat. A second round of testing later in the year will be considered pending results.

Xcel Energy, INL to use nuclear energy for clean hydrogen production; HTSE

Green Car Congress

Minneapolis-based Xcel Energy will work with Idaho National Laboratory to demonstrate a system that uses a nuclear plant’s steam and electricity to split water. The resulting hydrogen will initially be used at the power plant, but it could eventually be sold to other industries. Earlier post.) Prairie Island.
