Abstract: This solar thermochemical (STCH) hydrogen production project aims to maximize the efficiency of two‐step STCH with CaCeTiMn (CCTM), by composition engineering to achieve high efficiency. Partners will construct a multi‐scale computational method, optimize CCTM‐based perovskites, analyze the technoeconomics and demonstrate proof of concept of two‐step STCH with CCTM‐based perovskites.
