"I believe that water will one day be employed as fuel, that hydrogen and oxygen which constitute it, used singly or together, will
furnish an inexhaustible source of heat and light, of an intensity of which coal is not capable. I believe then that when the deposits
of coal are exhausted, we shall heat and warm ourselves with water. Water will be the coal of the future."
Jules Vernes (1870) "L´île mystérieuse

WHAT is photohydrogen?
Hydrogen gas is a potential carrier of energy. For that reason it
is used to bring space shuttles into their orbit. Quite recently,
even the first hydrogen powered mobile phone was presented.
In that case a fuel cell generates electricity from the gases
hydrogen and oxygen. Its high energy content makes hydrogen
gas an interesting energy carrier. But how should one produce
hydrogen? An environmental friendly way is to use solar energy.
In that particular case we are talking about photohydrogen! |

WHY this web site?
Did you know that hydrogen can be produced using solar energy?
Whatever your answer will be, here you will get more information on it!
This page is intended to increase your knowledge on hydrogen as an
energy carrier in general and on photohydrogen in particular. Since the
site is young it starts with links. But hopefully it will grow and grow and
maybe you like even to contribute to the pages content. In that case
