Cover Story: A current goal is utilizing intermittent electricity from renewable sources (wind, solar, etc.) to decompose water molecules (H2O) into green hydrogen (H2), known as the “fuel of future” and pure oxygen (O2), and use them in a reverse process to electrify our planet without any carbon dioxide pollution : 2H2O = 2H2 + O2. This idea, though innovative, is unfortunately hampered by the challenge of slow kinetics and selectivity because continuous seawater electrolysis (due to limited access to freshwater) may trigger chloride ion oxidation into undesired species of chlorine and/or hypochlorite. Scientists are looking for a cost-effective solution to this. Our present work reports a new engineering tactic to obtain heterogeneous and multifunctional electrocatalysts that achieve this goal.
