Researchers at Osaka Metropolitan University have created a new artificial photosynthesis system that can generate solar fuel more consistently while eliminating the need for battery based control equipment. The advance comes from integrating a self regulating chemical component directly into the electrolyzer, reducing both system complexity and cost. Like natural photosynthesis in plants, artificial photosynthesis uses sunlight to transform water and carbon dioxide into energy rich compounds. One such product is formic acid, a chemical that can serve as a fuel and a way to store energy. How Artificial Photosynthesis Produces Solar Fuel At the heart of these systems is…

Holmes argues that greater visibility…
