Green Hydrogen through direct solar photoelectrolysis
Principal Investigator
Prof. Aravind Kumar Chandiran
Objective
- Develop lead-free perovskite photoelectrodes for efficient sunlight-driven hydrogen production from water.
Description
- The proposed work on solar water splitting aims at converting and storing solar energy in the form of chemical fuels directly via the judiciously designed distortion induced perovskite materials, using photoelectrochemical devices. Upon successful demonstration of high performance PEC devices, it is expected to perform stability tests for reliable performance over long period of time. Following which, the system should be scale-up to bigger modules.
