Study finds direct seawater splitting has substantial drawbacks to conventional water splitting, offers almost no advantage

Green Car Congress

A study by a team of researchers from Technische Universität Berlin (TUB) and Fritz-Haber-Institut der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft has found that direct seawater splitting for hydrogen production has substantial drawbacks compared to conventional water splitting and offers almost no advantage. Additionally, H 2 O is needed for water splitting.

Hydrogen Battery "Sponges" Store Solar for the Grid

Cars That Think

A novel project in Australia aims to harness the sun’s energy in two different ways: by storing it and by using it to produce green hydrogen. Operators can use the systems to store energy from solar panels and deliver power to the grid during cloudy days or at night. At least that’s the vision Alan Yu and his partners share.
