Energy production and storage have been on the forefront of research for the past decade. Alternative energy sources are sought after such as: biodiesel, geothermal, tidal, wind, solar, batteries, hydrogen technologies and hydrogen fuel cells. Dye Synthesized Solar Cells (DSSC) have shown much promise showing increased efficiency, increased output and increased lifetime and recently, there has been a lot of research performed on TiO2 based solar cells. Copper, nickel, vanadium and cobalt tetraphenyl porphyrins were synthesized and characterized to be used in the fabrication of DSSC to determine their performance.
