Chapter 4A Electrocatalytic hydrogen production

Hydrogen is a clean energy alternative to adjust and interconnect the energy landscape as it is renewable, cost-effective, and relatively easily processed. The rapid development of advanced materials and deep mechanistic studies for electrocatalytic processes provides a good backdrop for developing more efficient hydrogen generation. This chapter summarizes the development of hydrogen energy, current research progress in electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution, and advanced materials in hydrogen production, storage, and utilization.
