Solar-H2


« European Solar-Fuel Initiative – Renewable Hydrogen from Sun and Water. Science Linking Molecular Biomimetics and Genetics »

The project SOLAR H2 is a collaborative project of the 7th PCRD (Small or medium-scale focused research project n°212508).

Coordinator: UVHAGEN ANTONI Margareta

University of Uppsala, Sweden
 
Objectives
 
      SOLAR-H2 brings together 12 world-leading European laboratories to carry out integrated, basic research aimed at achieving renewable hydrogen (H2) production from environmentally safe resources. The vision is to develop novel routes for the production of a Solar-fuel, in our case H2, from the very abundant, effectively inexhaustible resources, solar energy and water.     
      The project integrates two frontline research topics: artificial photosynthesis in man-made biomimetic systems, and photobiological H2 production in living organisms.
