According to foreign media reports: HyperSolar announced that its proprietary fully integrated hydrogen plant has been successfully tested for stability. Before the performance decline, the effective working time of the equipment exceeded 365 hours. The design of the device will be the first commercial use of the company. The basis of the regenerative hydrogen generator.
HyperSolar began testing the equipment by simulating sunlight in April 2018, demonstrating more than 100 hours of stable hydrogen production and achieving 294 hours of stable operation quickly in May 2018. In June, HyperSolar It achieved the goal of 365 hours of stable operation, and this goal was completed in the hot summer, which proved the high temperature resistance of the equipment.
HyperSolar's goal is more than 1000 hours of stable operation, which means that the catalyst's life span takes more than 6 months to be tested in California with peak sunlight for up to 5 hours. Battery and catalyst life is directly related to economy, life expectancy Extension will greatly reduce the cost of hydrogen production.
Due to the low cost of a-Si solar cells, many pioneers in the field of hydrogen energy have tried to use them in solar hydrogen systems, but have not achieved long-term stability in independent solar water decomposition devices.
