Discovery brightens solar's future, energy costs to be cut

The solar panel design will make it cheaper to produce hydrogen, but a simple version won’t be available for average citizens for at least 10 years, scientists said. Splitting water molecules to create hydrogen allows the sun’s energy to be more easily stored to generate electricity or power clean cars. The discovery has major implications for climate change, as improved solar energy would reduce fossil fuel dependence.
