Hydrogen is a clean non-polluting fuel. Production of hydrogen (Solar-Hydrogen) directly from water and sunlight is a very appealing renewable energy technology. The key requirement to allow this technology to be adopted is finding an electrically suitable material. This research program takes an innovative approach by combining state of the art computational techniques to engineer advanced ceramics having sophisticated electrical signatures. These ceramics will be synthesized in a partner experimental program to gauge their efficiencies for hydrogen production. The program will provide the foundation for a renewable energy technology that will provide clean energy and energy independence for Australia.

氢是一种清洁无污染的燃料。直接从水和阳光中生产氢（太阳能氢）是一种非常有吸引力的可再生能源技术。采用这项技术的关键要求是找到一种适合电的材料。该研究项目采用创新的方法，结合最先进的计算技术来设计具有复杂电子特征的先进陶瓷。这些陶瓷将在一个合作伙伴的实验项目中合成，以衡量它们生产氢的效率。该项目将为可再生能源技术奠定基础，为澳大利亚提供清洁能源和能源独立。
