Solar Power Sans the Sun
A new research breakthrough from Massachusetts have found a way around the age-old problem of harvesting solar energy when the sun don’t shine!
In a study published last August in Science, researchers have found a way to still perform a photosynthesis-inspired process that uses electricity from a renewable source to take apart the water molecule into its main components which are hydrogen and oxygen.
These 2 gases can then be stored in a cell that can produce electricity to replace solar power on days when it’s just not that sunny .
This has huge implications on the road towards a fossil free energy source. We can really look toward solar energy powering more and more homes and buildings!
