New photosynthesis machine is twice as efficient at creating hydrogen fuel

Researchers at the University of Michigan and McGill University in Montreal have created a device that requires only sunlight to efficiently split fresh or salt water into hydrogen that may be used in fuel cells. The new machine, which mimics the process of photosynthesis, is capable of producing hydrogen fuel at twice the efficiency of previous technologies. “If we can directly store solar energy as a chemical fuel, like what nature does with photosynthesis, we could solve a fundamental challenge...
