Abstract

A future sustainable economy based on hydrogen will require large-scale hydrogen production processes in a CO2 emission-free way. Within this context, solar-driven thermochemical water splitting cycles have been proposed as a promising alternative for hydrogen mass production with the use of concentrated solar energy as the principal source to provide the process heat.
