Abstract The purpose of this project is to experiment with the method of storing renewable energy by breaking water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen and using a catalyst to increase the efficiency. Burning fossil fuels produce harmful gases, which contribute to climate change. Hydrogen is abundant on earth and can be produced via water splitting. A hydrogen fuel cell can supply power without generating greenhouse gases.
