The effect of sunlight in hydrogen production from water electrolysis

Water electrolysis is the cleanest technology to gain energy because its combustion product is only water. However this technology still lack of efficiency due to its residue electric field effect. One way to overcome the problem is by utilizing sunlight. Three sets of experiments were conducted and...
