Hydrogen energy, a pivotal clean energy source for achieving carbon neutrality, heavily relies on the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) during the process of electrocatalytic water splitting for its production. The cornerstone of this process lies in efficient and stable catalyst materials; however, traditional noble metal catalysts face challenges due to their high costs and limited availability. Recently, Deng Bing's research team at Tsinghua University's School of Environment, in collaboration with domestic and international teams, has made significant strides. They have successfully developed a series of efficient and stable catalyst materials with low noble metal loading, leveraging flash Joule heating technology. This remarkable achievement provides robust support for the advancement and application of green hydrogen technology.
