Solar-driven water splitting at 13.8% solar-to-hydrogen efficiency

The 25% panel efficiency isn't a particularly relevant metric, and doesn't play in storage. A cost or area metric is more relevant economically.

I think that's a very important point. For example if generating fuel from algae was only 0.5% efficient, it may not matter if the process can be conducted in open ocean.
