About the Project

Green hydrogen production is one of the promising technologies in the field of power generation. Recently, hydrogen has received the attention worldwide as the sustainable fuel of the future. This research aims to develop a cost effective hybrid solar power plant for hydrogen production which can be achieved by developing an efficient solar concentrator. The research will focus on improving the hybrid system overall efficiency by design optimisation of the solar concentrator in Solar thermochemical water-splitting cycle (STWC) for a range of radiation levels. Different types of concentrators will be investigated to achieve the most efficient design for both large- and small-scale applications.
