  In order to adopt water electrolyzers as a main hydrogen production system, it is critical to develop inexpensive and earth-abundant catalysts. Currently, both half-reactions in water splitting depend heavily on noble metal catalysts. This review discusses the proton exchange membrane (PEM) water electrolysis (WE) and the progress in replacing the noble-metal catalysts with earth-abundant ones. The efforts within this field for the discovery of efficient and stable earth-abundant catalysts (EACs) have increased exponentially the last few years. The development of EACs for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in acidic media is particularly important, as the only stable and efficient catalysts until now are noble-metal oxides, such as IrOx and RuOx. On the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) side, there is significant progress on EACs under acidic conditions, but there are very few reports of these EACs employed in full PEM WE cells. These two main issues are reviewed, and we conclude with prospects for innovation in EACs for the OER in acidic environments, as well as with a critical assessment of the few full PEM WE cells assembled with EACs.

  In this work, we grow oriented photonic TiO2 nanotubes (TNTs) with a well-established anodization method and their intrinsic catalytic and electronic properties are studied by means of (photo)electrochemical methods. The oriented photonic TNTs are assessed by the RctCdl (ΩF) product, which is a measure of the intrinsic photoelectrocatalytic activity (IPA) of the material. The RctCdl product decouples any surface area effects and it can be applied at any potential and accompanied reaction without knowing the actual electrochemically active surface area (EASA). Moreover, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is used in order to investigate the frequency dispersion in the single frequency Mott-Schottky (MS) measurement. The choice of frequency and the frequency dispersion in MS measurements in nanostructured and of high surface area semiconductors are rarely addressed and can result in erroneous values of two important parameters, i.e. flat band position and donor or acceptor densities. This work provides further insights into important electrochemical aspects and catalytic properties of high surface area nanomaterials for photoelectrochemical applications.

  The aim of this work has been the photoelectrochemical (PEC) study of nanostructured photoanodes based on TiO2. Highly ordered and well adhered TiO2 nanotubes (TNTs) of different lengths (∼2–20 μm) were prepared in a two-step process in ethylene glycol solutions containing fluorides, and detailed XPS analysis showed that they have become co-doped with C, N and F. PEC measurements revealed that increasing surface area is not followed by increase in the photoconversion efficiency, but rather that an optimal balance between electroactive surface area (ESA) and charge carrier concentration exists. TNTs of around 10 μm show the optimum incident photon-to-current efficiency (IPCE) of ∼33% and an overall photoconversion efficiency of ∼6.3% under UV illumination of 4 mW cm−2 light intensity. Finally, Mott-Schottky analysis revealed significant frequency dispersion of the estimated space charge layer capacitance, which renders the accurate estimation of the flatband position and charge carrier concentration unreliable. On the other hand, more realistic charge carrier concentrations can be obtained by normalizing the capacitance per ESA.

  Polymer electrolyte membrane(PEM) fuel cells and electrolysers offer efficient use and production of H2 for emission-free transport and sustainable energy systems. In order to reduce the cost,complexity,flooding,catalyst poisoning and degradation,operation above 80°C and at lower relative humidities(RH) is preferable. Acid doped polybenzimidazole(PBI),sulfonated polyetheretherketone(SPEEK) and their composites are being investigated for high temperature and low RH operation with sufficient conductivities. We take a critical view and a surface protonic approach to gain fundamental insight.

  CO2 capture and utilization (CCU) can alleviate the disastrous effects of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions form the use of fossil fuels. The use of CO2 emission as feedstock for direct conversion into valuable chemicals has attracted increasing research interest worldwide. A number of approaches, such as chemical, electrochemical, photochemical and biological routes have used CO2 as a sustainable carbon resource for the production of chemicals. In the present CO2BioPEC project, a novel hybrid photoelectrochemical concept, based on solar energy and formate dehydrogenase biocatalyst is applied, as illustrated in Figure 1 (left). This multidisciplinary project aims at demonstrating a bio-hybrid photoelectrochemical cell, in which solar energy is efficiently captured and utilized to convert CO2 into energy-rich compounds, using formate dehydrogenase enzymes as biocatalysts. Cobalt oxide is a low-cost material with a band gap that can absorb visible light. It is also a promising co-catalyst that has been widely used for oxygen evolution route. In the present work, nanosized cobalt oxide was synthesized and used as a co-catalyst on the photoanode. The results showed that the formation of cobalt oxides (Co3O4, CoOOH and Co(OH)2) is strongly dependent on the temperature and reaction time. The photochemical efficiency will be further investigated by impregnating nanosized cobalt oxides onto Ta3N4 /TaON nanotubes.

  The capture and storage of solar energy in chemical form by a photoelectrochemical (PEC) cell is an elegant and simple solution to the increasing energy demands and needs for chemicals and fuels from non-fossil sources. We first developed a facile fabrication method of a monolithic solid-state PEC (SSPEC) cell, which utilizes a solid-state polymer electrolyte and minimizes the distance between the two electrodes. The recent progress in understanding of surface proton conduction in porous ceramic-based electrolytes led to the idea of using the SSPEC cell for hydrogen production through water vapor splitting. The traditionally Pt-based cathode was replaced by an earth-abundant photocathode, g-C3N4, which increased the intrinsic photo-induced electrical field by a factor of three. Such a monolithic SSPEC cell working fully in the gas phase was demonstrated first time, and can play an important role for clean energy production in rural or other areas where grid infrastructure and clean water sources are limited or absent. CO2 utilization is considered a key player in a carbon-free energy economy, emphasising the importance of CO2 capture and conversion. We have successfully demonstrated how a bio-catalyst (enzyme) can be coupled with traditional chemical engineering for this purpose. To approach this, a stable, highly photo-active material - Ta3N5 nanotubes - has been synthesized and tested in a photoelectrochemical cell. It reaches close to its theoretical performance in photo-assisted water splitting. We then coupled the Ta3N5 nanotubes as the photoabsorber together with an optimised enzyme - formate dehydrogenase (FDH) - in a photoelectrochemical cell. The aim is to mimic natural photosynthesis to reduce CO2 into a valuable chemical form – formic acid. A solar-driven reduction of CO2 and water to formic acid at close to 100% faradaic efficiency has been reached.
