SOLAR ENERGY & ARTIFICIAL PHOTOSYNTHESIS Solar Panels Low efficiency Manufacturing cost

SOLAR ENERGY & ARTIFICIAL PHOTOSYNTHESIS Solar Panels Low efficiency Manufacturing cost Artificial photosynthesis Using the free power of the sun

Current projects

Current projects Nocera’s artificial leaf Production of hydrogen Works in any water No wires

Current projects Nocera’s artificial leaf ZnO Nanocones Production of hydrogen Works in any water No wires ZnO Nanocones 1.4 % light/power conversion then Silicone – 80% more efficient

Nanoleaves Nanotechnology is on the rise, Particles so small, invisible to our eyes. While gas companies act like a thief’s, Scientists are developing artificial leaves. Prices for power are rising, So the demand for solar power is not surprising. With the efficiency of nanocones, We could have self-sustainable homes. Cory Burgon
