MIT’s artificial leaf is ten times more efficient than the real thing

 With a single gallon of water, Nocera says, the chip could produce enough electricity to  power a house in a developing country for an entire day. Provide every house on the planet  with an artificial leaf and we could satisfy our 14 terrawatt need with just one gallon of  water a day. […] “Our goal is to make each home its own power station,” he [Nocera] said. “One can  envision villages in India and Africa not long from now purchasing an affordable basic  power system based on this technology.“
