  molecular water splitting

       Has this process reached a stage where discussion has begun as to precisely what kind of company(ies) will be interested in making this process a part of their productivity? 
       This is a special breakthrough....if it is as promising as it presently appears..... because the eventual hydrogen produced would replace at least gasoline if not also subsequently, heating oil, freeing us from carbon dioxide production along with the freedom from the crushing damage to our economy the "exporting" of billions of dollars annually for foreign oil.  As an interested investor, the eventual business which incorporates this process for public consumption would be a nice place to focus...pb

    Wow, that oildrum article was pretty good. 
    
    I thought TR was a serious publication that wouldn't get sucked in by hype.  When it comes to research by MIT folks, they apparently do.

  How many KWh

  Does anyone know how many kilowatt hours the Nocera MIT process takes to split one liter of water?
  
  Also, how many kilowatt hours normal electrolysis takes to split one liter of water?
  
  Thanks.
