Currently, a novel green material, defatted spent coffee ground (DSCG), is employed as a support to prepare DSCG supported Ru (DSCG‐Ru) material. DSCG and DSCG‐Ru materials are characterized by advanced surface analytical techniques such as N2 adsorption‐desorption, X‐ray diffraction, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and H2‐temperature‐programmed reduction. Characterization results revealed that DSCG‐Ru was prepared successfully. First, DSCG‐Ru is prepared at varying Ru contents on deoiled coffee waste and hydrogen production experiments are performed by the methanolysis of sodium borohydride on the DSCG‐Ru catalysts. It is observed that optimum conditions for the catalyst preparation are examined on the 10% Ru containing DSCG‐Ru catalysts and found as 10% Ru, 300°C, and 60 minutes. DSCG catalyst containing 10% Ru completed the methanolysis reaction in 1.5 minutes. Capacitive measurements to investigate the supercapacitor property of DSCG‐Ru catalysts prepared at optimum conditions 10% Ru, 300°C, and 60 minutes is investigated by cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and galvanostatic charge‐discharge measurements. Results revealed that gravimetric capacitance of the electrode at a current density is found as of 0.5 A/g and 43 F/g, greater than the literature values. DSCG‐Ru, green novel supported Ru catalyst, has a dual promising performance in hydrogen production and supercapacitor measurements.
