Maybe some good news for a change!
It would appear researchers at MIT have been using as their model of inspiration what plants do naturally in the way of photosynthesis to create energy.
By using photo voltaic solar panels homeowners could power their homes by day, while also drawing energy to split water into hydrogen and oxygen for storage. At night, the stored hydrogen and oxygen could be recombined creating a 'fuel cell' chamber to generate power while the solar panels are inactive.
So the question now is, can we expect a practical scaling up for mass distribution anytime soon?
