The overall goal of FotoH2 has been to develop an efficient tandem photoelectrolysis cell for solar H2 production based on durable and cost-effective advanced materials and interfaces. The consortium partners have applied their experience with innovative technologies for implementing the main vision of FotoH2: the prototyping and validation of a mass deployable solar H2 production technology, in the form of easily integrable flat panels. The input H2O and output H2 are carried by tubing at the edges of the panel, comprising a self-powered flow-through system which can be simply connected to a water source. The semiconductor electrode tandem architecture was chosen as it has the potential to yield higher efficiency and allow more flexible deployment. The validation of the technology has been done on a 1 m2-scale.

Abstract
The overall goal of FotoH2 has been to develop an efficient tandem photoelectrolysis cell for solar H2 production based on durable and cost-effective advanced materials and interfaces. The consortium partners have applied their experience with innovative technologies for implementing the main vision of FotoH2: the prototyping and validation of a mass deployable solar H2 production technology, in the form of easily integrable flat panels. The input H2O and output H2 are carried by tubing at the edges of the panel, comprising a self-powered flow-through system which can be simply connected to a water source. The semiconductor electrode tandem architecture was chosen as it has the potential to yield higher efficiency and allow more flexible deployment. The validation of the technology has been done on a 1 m2-scale.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
