This is a neat idea. Not only is it a neat idea, but it could be one of those things that solves the solar battery/transmission conundrum.

I've been a big fan of gallium nitride since reading about the advances in high-powered LEDs. Someone else appears to have figured out another use for it. 2% antimony and some sunlight, next thing you know you've got bubbling riches. The catalyst doesn't get used up, and this is hydrogen production without the CO2.
On another note, Exxon just declared war on the polar bear.
