Researchers around the world are working on more efficient methods for producing hydrogen. Hydrogen could make a decisive contribution to reducing the consumption of fossil raw materials, especially if it is produced using renewable energies. Existing technologies for producing climate-neutral hydrogen are still too inefficient or too expensive for broader application. A research team at the University of Tübingen is now presenting a new type of solar cell with remarkably high efficiency. It enables decentralized production of hydrogen and has the potential for industrial-scale applications.
