Making the hydrogen evolution reaction in polymer electrolyte membrane electrolysers even faster

Although the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is one of the fastest electrocatalytic reactions, modern polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolysers require larger platinum loadings (∼0.5–1.0 mg cm−2) than those in PEM fuel cell anodes and cathodes altogether (∼0.5 mg cm−2). Thus, catalyst optim...
