Description
This book explains the conversion of solar energy to chemical energy and
its storage. It covers the basic background; interface modeling at the
reacting surface; energy conversion with chemical, electrochemical and
photoelectrochemical approaches and energy conversion using applied
photosynthesis. The important concepts for converting solar to chemical
energy are based on an understanding of the reactions’ equilibrium and
non-equilibrium conditions. Since the energy conversion is essentially
the transfer of free energy, the process are explained in the context of
thermodynamics.
