Provided is a hydrogen generating system that requires no external electric power supply as required in electrolysis, and can efficiently utilize abundant sunlight. This system is characterized by comprising: a pontoon 8 including a deck 3 and a floating body 4 provided under the deck 3; a plurality of optical hydrogen generating panels 1 which are arranged on the deck 3 of the pontoon 8, and which, upon incidence of sunlight onto an optical semiconductor, decompose water and generate hydrogen; a hydrogen storage tank 5 which is arranged in the inner space of the floating body 4, and which is a hydrogen storage means for storing hydrogen generated by the hydrogen generating panels 1; a water storage tank 6 which is a water storage means for storing water to be supplied to the hydrogen generating panels 1; and a water supply pump 10 and a water supply pipe 9 which are means for supplying water in the water storage tank 6 to the hydrogen generating panels 1. Rainwater fallen on the deck 3 is collected and stored in the water storage means 6. |
