Technology
The world faces increasing pollution and energy demand, prompting the need for sustainable energy resources to reduce carbon footprints. Hydrogen is a top green energy solution, especially for transport and large-scale applications. Water-splitting catalysis, involving oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), is promising for large-scale hydrogen production but faces challenges like slow kinetics and high energy consumption.
