SANTA BARBARA, CA--(Marketwired - April 26, 2016) - HyperSolar, Inc. the developer of a breakthrough technology to produce renewable hydrogen using sunlight and any source of water, announced today that it has extended its sponsored research agreement with the University of Iowa through April 30, 2017. The Company seeks to sustain the momentum achieved in scaling up its renewable hydrogen production technology to meet growing market demand.
Led by Dr. Syed Mubeen, the scientific team at the University of Iowa has spurred development of HyperSolar technology. Recent technological milestones include (1) identifying a simple and low-cost process for the manufacturing of solar hydrogen production cells, (2) developing a proprietary coating made of inexpensive earth abundant materials to protect the solar cells during the hydrogen generation process, and (3) identifying a process to produce renewable hydrogen using a low-cost photocatalyst as opposed to more expensive, platinum-based catalysts. The research team has now turned its focus to further demonstrating capabilities at larger scale.
The extension of the sponsored research agreement with the University of Iowa was a critical objective for HyperSolar leadership. Following this announcement, the Company seeks to add an additional member to its scientific research team, effective this year.
