Solution:

Chemiosmosis requires a membrane, a proton pump, a proton gradient and ATPase. Energy is used to pump protons across the membrane to create a gradient or a high concentration of protons within the thylakoid lumen. However, the most essential requirement is the creation of a proton gradient across the membrane.
