摘要

A system for the generation of hydrogen at a remote location using energy input to the system at a different, central location, comprises a source of high intensity electromagnetic radiation at the central location, a network of optical cables having a least an input end and an output end, the input end being connected to the electromagnetic radiation from the source, a hydrogen generation apparatus located at the remote location and having an input terminal for receiving light emitted from the other end of the network, the apparatus being adapted in use to split water into hydrogen and oxygen when a catalyst within the apparatus is exposed to radiation from the source supplied by the optical cable network, and a storage chamber for storing the hydrogen produced by the hydrogen generation apparatus.
