Hydrogen ion leaves the thylakoid lumen.
A high concentration of H in the thylakoid compartment provides energy for the production of ATP and ATP synthase. ATP is responsible for the transportation of chemical energy within cells, which is necessary for metabolism.

thylakoid
Chemiosmosis in the thylakoid membrane results in the synthesis of ATP during light reaction. Thylakoid membranes contain proteins. These proteins make use of light energy to drive electron transport chains. This generates a chemiosmotic potential across the thylakoid membrane and NADPH. The ATP synthase enzyme uses the chemiosmotic potential to make ATP during photo- phosphorylation.
ATP synthase complex
A high concentration of H in the thylakoid compartment provides energy for the production of ATP and ATP synthase. ATP is responsible for the transportation of chemical energy within cells, which is necessary for metabolism.
The electron transport chain releases energy in order to pump protons (hydrogen ions) from the stroma into the thylakoid compartment, creating a proton gradient within the thylakoid membrane.
The light dependent reactions take place in the thylakoid of the chloroplast. ATP is formed in the ATP synthase protein by the assistance of the hydrogen gradient produced in the electron transport chain.

The pigment molecules and electron transport chains involved in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis are embedded in the thylakoid membrane. As energy is released from electrons traveling through the chain of acceptors, it is used to pump protons (that is, H+ ions) from the stroma of the chloroplast across the thylakoid membrane and into the center of the thylakoid. Thus, protons accumlate within the thylakoids, lowering the pH of the thylakoid interior and making it more acidic. A proton gradient possesses potential energy that can be used to form ATP.Protons are prevented from diffusing out of the thylakoid because the thylakoid membrane is impermeable to protons except at certain points bridged by an enzyme called ATP synthase. This protein extends across the thylakoid membrane and forms a channel through which protons can leave the thylakoid. As the protons pass through ATP synthetase, energy is released, and this energy is tapped by ATP synthase to form ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate. The coupling of ATP synthesis to a protein gradient formed by energy released during electron transport is called chemiosmosis.
