SolarLab’s Concept Hydrogen Powerplant Can Safely Generate #Hydrogen From #Solar #Energy via @solarfeeds

Hydrogenis often touted as the fuel of the future. However, even after beingthe most abundant element in the universe, producing hydrogen that canlater be used as fuel is in itself a dangerous process. SolarLab Research and Design has come up with the Hydrogen Powerplant, a concept powerplant that canbe one of the safest and the most efficient ways to create hydrogen. Theoffshore power plant is designed to make use of seawater, a fuel celland Solar Tiles to produce hydrogen that is then pumped safely toinflated hydrogen tanks fixed on the sea floor. The water-coolingeffect reduces operating temperature and increases PV efficiency by upto 30%. Sincehydrogen is stored underwater, the design eliminates explosion risks aswater naturally pressurizes the system at ideal level. Generatedhydrogen can then be distributed safely and efficiently in a cold,pressurized underwater envir...
