Researchers from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and their Canadian partners have designed a low-cost photoreactor design for solar-driven synthesis. Until now, however, the technology has mainly been found in the laboratory because the costs of producing solar hydrogen were simply too high. Kant et al.

It offers the solution to several significant transitions we need: moving society from burning fossil fuels to substituting renewable resource fuels such as solar, wind and biofuels; and from using fossil materials as fuel to using them for other recyclable uses. Distributed Solar and Wind with the PHEV. It is much more than that.

For B2U, NREL’s repurposing cost calculator is available for free to download , enabling users to explore the effects of different repurposing strategies and assumptions on economics. These capabilities are expected to become even more valuable in future facilitation of higher penetrations of solar- and wind-based generation.
