The Solar Hydrogen Generation Research (SHGR) project, led by the University of Nevada Las Vegas Research Foundation, will define economically feasible concepts for solar-powered production of hydrogen from water, consistent with the cost and schedule goals outlined by the Department of Energy (DOE). The SHGR project integrates efforts that cross the program boundaries of two Department of Energy activities: the Hydrogen Fuel Cells and Infrastructure Technology Program (HFCIT) responsible for research and development of hydrogen production technologies and the Solar Energy Technology Program (SET) responsible for collection and utilization of solar thermal and photolytic energy.
