Low-carbon energy transition with the sun and forest: Solar-driven hydrogen production from biomass

There is a need to derive hydrogen from renewable sources, and the innovative stewardship of two natural resources, namely Sun forest, could provide new pathway. This paper provides first comparative analysis solar-driven production environmental angles. A novel process proposed in this paper, named Solar-Driven Advanced Biomass Indirect-Gasification (SABI-Hydrogen), shows promise toward achieving continuous operation scalability, key challenges meet future energy needs. The calculated Global Warming Potential for 1 kg 1.04 CO2-eq/kg H2, less than half current biomass gasification which emits 2.67 H2. Further, SABI-Hydrogen demonstrates least-carbon intensive pathway among all methods. Thus, lead sustainable supply, essential low-carbon transition.
