A photo-sensitizer made of graphene-based material (2-D) is used in concert with EDTA in photoelectrochemical solar cells to increase efficiency and storage capacity of solar energy in order to make a solar cell economically feasible. Photopotential and photocurrent are created at 1142 mV and 960 μA, respectively. Photoelectrochemical cell have achieved a maximum power of 228.40 μW, a fill factor of 0.17, and a conversion efficiency of 4.38%. The cell storage capacity allows for a half power (t1/2) level to be maintained for 1300 minutes. The electrical output of the photoelectrochemical cell has been observed to be influenced by a number of different factors.
