Progress has been made on the path to sunlight-driven production of hydrogen. Chemists present a new enzyme-like molecular catalyst for water oxidation. Humankind is facing a central challenge: it must manage the transition to a sustainable and carbon dioxide-neutral energy economy.
Hydrogen is considered a promising alternative to fossil fuels. It can be produced from water using electricity. If the electricity comes from renewable sources, it is called green hydrogen. But it would be even more sustainable if hydrogen could be produced directly with the energy of sunlight.
In nature, light-driven water splitting takes place during photosynthesis in plants...
