jkcraven / Artificial Photosynthesis

（Ricky）

Artificial photosynthesis has been realized by fusing the technologies related to semiconductors and catalysts in laboratories. Although the energy produced is still insignificant, it can be said that it is epoch-making in that it has succeeded in producing fuel more effectively than plants. "This technology is often compared to 'solar power generation,' but the major difference is that it can be stored as fuel." Solar power does produce electrical energy, but it is difficult to store it. This technology can clear that point. This is what Mr. Ono, who is in charge of this research, explained.
