Abstract

Solar energy is of paramount importance for realizing a clean and renewable energy future. Due to its intermittency, an energy storage system is generally demanded. Hydrogen production via solar water splitting is a promising approach to store solar energy and realize a carbon-neutral economy. Here, we present an exciting process toward a highly efficient solar water splitting system at an affordable cost using TiC-supported Pt nanocluster electrocatalysts and monolithic perovskite/silicon tandem cells, which will help to bring the hydrogen economy closer to reality.
