Project Description

The proposed research is a study to demonstrate novel technology for green hydrogen production that exploits the potential of combining electro-responsive materials with photocatalysis to achieve beyond state-of-the-art green hydrogen production. 

The project focuses on demonstrating green hydrogen production by harnessing electrical and solar power as the inputs to create hydrogen from water. The team aim to create a prototype of this technology and also measure its effectiveness vs the state-of-the-art systems.
