Recent Semi-artificial photosynthesis advance - what’s the equation?

Hi, In a recent cool advance that made mainstream news, Cambridge researchers were able to improve efficiency of artificial photosynthesis and use hydrogenase from algae to store energy as H2. I’m wondering how does the photosynthesis equation change here. The original one is 6H2O + 6CO2 -> C6H12O6 + 6O2. What is it in this case? 

Here’s link to Science Daily article on this: bit.ly/2Q2AhpV

And here’s link to actual article abstract: https://go.nature.com/2CiuSb

Thx,
