Hydrogen is readily obtained from renewable and non-renewable resources via water
splitting by using thermal, electrical, photonic and biochemical energy. The
major hydrogen production is generated from thermal energy through steam
reforming/gasification of fossil fuel. As the commonly used non-renewable
resources will be depleted in the long run, there is great demand to utilize
renewable energy resources for hydrogen production. Most of the renewable
resources may be used to produce electricity for driving water splitting while
challenges remain to improve cost-effectiveness. As the most abundant energy
resource, the direct conversion of solar energy to hydrogen is considered the
most sustainable energy production method without causing pollutions to the
environment. In overall, this review briefly summarizes thermolytic,
electrolytic, photolytic and biolytic water splitting. It highlights photonic and
electrical driven water splitting together with photovoltaic-integrated
solar-driven water electrolysis.
