Solar fuel - the fuel of the future

We work along two tracks: artificial photosynthesis, and a photobiological approach. Both are aimed at production of hydrogen and other fuels from solar energy. Hydrogen is an environmentally friendly energy carrier that could replace fossil fuels. Only water is generated when hydrogen is either combusted or used in a fuel cell.

Our strategy is bridging many fields. Our work covers chemical design and synthesis, physical chemistry, advanced spectroscopy, biochemistry, biophysics, molecular biology and gene-technology to bio-reactor design and technology. This way the Consortium has carried out pioneering, unique work in the last 20 years.

This page is under construction. We will soon fill it with exciting science!
