Low cost hydrogen fuel could be a step closer thanks to a discovery by scientists at Edinburgh University.
Researchers at the university have uncovered key details about the atomic structure of chemical catalysts that use light to split water molecules into their component parts-hydrogen and water.
The team hope that the finding will help them develop more efficient photocatalyts that can produce hydrogen for fuel from water. The new catalysts should be able to operate at a range of temperatures to make the production of hydrogen fuel cheaper and more dependable.
