The fuel cell efficiency is 36 32 with dissipation after electrolysis under a 60w light bulb and is 40 04 with dissipation after electrolysis under the sun.
Fuel cells vs solar panels.
Solar cells are best when power without fuel is the most important factor.
This aspect of solar power is evident but the fact that photovoltaics are a technology not a fuel is not.
Fuel cells can generate a great deal more power.
The solar cell efficiency is 15 33 under a 60 watt incandescent light bulb and is 15 13 under the sun.
The fuel cell does not.
The solar cell provides essentially free energy.

10 s or a 100 times more.
While fuels are tangible commodities and must be produced treated and transported solar pv is a technical innovation that involves silicon cells converting sunlight into energy at a highly efficient rate.
The team has created an artificial photosynthesis device called a hybrid photoelectrochemical and voltaic hpev cell that turns sunlight and water into two types of energy.
Solar cells convert light into electrical energy.
