The project aims to enable large-scale production of green hydrogen from solar energy by leveraging concentrating solar power (CSP) infrastructure and solar heat to split water (H 2 O) into hydrogen (H 2 ) and oxygen (O 2 ). The production costs of green hydrogen remain a major barrier to wide-scale adoption in the transportation sector.
