Electrolytic hydrogen production could also be in focus, if the hydrogen is produced using renewable energy generated electricity. Although hydrogen is generally considered as a clean fuel during its use phase (direct combustion or use in fuel cells), its production has negative impacts to the environment.

Especially, electrodeposition plays a vital role in the electrochemical hydrogen production strategy through which the synthesis of water splitting catalysts with excellent performance is achieved. Although many recent studies have won plentiful achievements around this hot spot, there is still a lack of comprehensive review in this field.
The high overpotential of OER causes the actual water decomposition voltage to be higher than the theoretical voltage of 1.23 V. Therefore, the high energy consumption is a key limiting factor for the foreground of hydrogen production via water electrolysis. In traditional overall water splitting, the anode product is a low-value

Hydrogen produced from nuclear energy via electrolysis is sometimes viewed as a subset of green hydrogen, but can also be referred to as pink hydrogen. The Oskarshamn Nuclear Power Plant made an agreement in January 2022 to supply commercial pink hydrogen in the order of kilograms per day.
Electrolysis of water. Simple setup for demonstration of electrolysis of water at home. An AA battery in a glass of tap water with salt showing hydrogen produced at the negative terminal. Electrolysis of water is using electricity to split water into oxygen ( O. 2) and hydrogen ( H. 2) gas by electrolysis.
In this work, we corroborate that moisture in the air can directly be used for hydrogen production via electrolysis, owing to its universal availability and natural inexhaustibility 24,25,26,27,28
Substituting the oxygen evolution reaction by the urea oxidation reaction (UOR) is thermodynamically more favorable for energy-saving hydrogen production. However, UOR suffers from sluggish reaction kinetics due to its complex six-electron transfer processes combined with conversion of complicated intermediates. Herein, LaNiO3–NiO
A small percentage of hydrogen (about 4%) is produced by water electrolysis, which consumes substantial energy (6–7 kWh per m 3 of hydrogen) [ 8 ]. Large amounts of pure hydrogen (99.999 vol%) can be produced using water electrolysis without emissions of gaseous pollutants.
Electrolysis is very promising for green hydrogen production, yet several challenges need to be overcome. Operando techniques can offer in situ monitoring and real-time observation of water electrolysis, including reaction mechanisms, structural changes, ionic conductivity, transport properties, and degradation mechanisms.
However, hydrogen production efficiency through water electrolysis is very low to be economically competitive due to the high energy consumption and low hydrogen evolution rate. Therefore in order to increase the efficiency and reduce the energy consumption, many researchers have been done their work related to development of
Conclusion. A techno-economic analysis was performed for a large-scale, grid-connected electrolytic hydrogen production plants under flat rate pricing schemes and wholesale electricity markets across Canada and two other locations—California and Germany. The locations were chosen based on the penetration of renewable energy in
Water electrolysis is a process of utilizing electricity to break down water into oxygen and hydrogen gas, often referred to as electrochemical water splitting. Consequently, water electrolysis is highly useful if it could reinforce a hydrogen economy through green electrolysis process (Roger et al. 2017 ).
Hydrogen is a versatile energy carrier (not an energy source). It can be produced from multiple feedstocks and can be used across virtually any application (see Figure 1). Renewable electricity can be converted to hydrogen via electrolysis, which can couple continuously increasing renewable energy with all the end uses that are more difficult
The recent emergence of the hydrogen (H <sub>2</sub> ) fuelcell electric vehicle (FCEV) guarantees the benign nature of the transportation industry. Several companies, e.g., Toyota and Hyundai, have started to commercialize H <sub>2</sub> FCEV with relatively comparable properties to meet the renewable energy-based future. For
Hydrogen Production via Electrolysis of Wastewater. The high energy consumption of traditional water splitting to produce hydrogen is mainly due to complex oxygen evolution reaction (OER), where low-economic-value O2 gas is generated. Meanwhile, cogeneration of H2 and O2 may result in the formation of an explosive H2/O2

Hydrogen can be produced from different resources, such as fossil fuels, natural gas, biomass, coal, and water, using thermal, chemical, or electrochemical methods. Nearly 95% of total hydrogen production comes from steam reforming where natural gas is treated with steam at elevated temperatures (128°C–228°C).
There are three main methods to produce hydrogen through electrolysis [8], [9]: Electrolysis: Electrolyzing is a well-known method for water splitting, which includes a cathode and an anode immersed in an electrolyte. When a direct current is applied, water splits into hydrogen (cathode) and oxygen (anode side).
