In the photosynthetic electron transfer chain, ATP and NADPH are produced into the stroma of the chloroplast. This is necessary mainly because: the photorespiration occurs in the stroma. glucose is made in the stroma, which requires ATP the Calvin cycle runs in the stroma, which uses ATP and NADPH as energy source. the stroma is rich in water
