An Integrated, Systems Approach to the Development of Solar Fuel Generators

Abstract

Two major technological challenges in the development of a sustainable, clean energy system are providing massive grid-scale energy storage and an ample supply of carbon-neutral, high energy-density, transportation fuels. The development and deployment of massive, grid-scale energy storage is imperative for reliably and robustly compensating for the intermittency involved with the utilization of very large amounts of wind energy and solar energy.
