“…The renewable energy used for maritime transport and heavy-duty fleets must also be evaluated in detail, although in principle, it should be assumed that some neutral liquid fuel will be necessary for use in some CI engines [91][92][93]. In this sense, the possibility of directly using green hydrogen or green ammonia as fuel for CI engines must also be considered [94][95][96]. In other cases, depending on the circumstances of each moment, it may be possible to diversify the available processes.…”

Nowadays, there is an intense debate in the European Union (EU) regarding the limits to achieve the European Green Deal, to make Europe the first climate-neutral continent in the world. In this context, there are also different opinions about the role that thermal engines should play. Furhermore, there is no clear proposal regarding the possibilities of the use of green hydrogen in the transport decarbonization process, even though it should be a key element. Thus, there are still no precise guidelines regarding the role of green hydrogen, with it being exclusively used as a raw material to produce E-fuels. This review aims to evaluate the possibilities of applying the different alternative technologies available to successfully complete the process already underway to achieve Climate Neutrality by about 2050, depending on the maturity of the technologies currently available, and those anticipated to be available in the coming decades.

“…While striving for a carbon-free community powered by a sustainable economy, hydrogen has been considered an ideal solution for energy, green transportation, industry, and other domains. − In fact, hydrogen energy was thought to be the cleanest energy carrier since water was only the product from its combustion process. − Its high calorific value of 142.3 MJ/kg (three times higher compared to that value of gasoline) also makes it an efficient source of energy. , Figure illustrates hydrogen production technologies from other sources and hydrogen applications in many fields. , It could be seen that thermochemical conversion is considered as the most presently employed technology, and the majority of the hydrogen was derived from nonrenewable fossil feedstocks (such as natural gas, oil, and coal, oil) that are also associated with significant carbon emissions. , Thus, hydrogen is still a potentially game-changing species to attain carbon-free energy, but generating it without carbon emission is challenging. , Due to this reason, searching for sustainable hydrogen production technologies from noncarbon sources should be a prioritized approach for the energy sector in the future.…”

Hydrogen energy is environmental-friendly and considered an attractive alternative to fossil fuels. Among the feasible technologies for hydrogen generation, photocatalysis-derived hydrogen from water splitting is considered to be the optimal solution for meeting long-term sustainability and increased energy demands. In this context, various photocatalytic genres are proposed, with metal and carbon-supported photocatalysts demonstrating greater comprehensiveness and potential for addressing solar-driven hydrogen production from water. Several important aspects of the aforementioned photocatalytic genres are reviewed in the present work in an effort to provide pertinent researchers with new horizons for more advanced performance. The review is initiated by introducing the primary principles in photocatalysis, as well as the prerequisites for hydrogen generation from water. The focus then moves to metal-based photocatalysts, where the important features of these materials as photocatalysts are summarized. Related limitations are also discussed, along with the proposed strategies that could potentially mitigate them. Similar systematic summaries are made of knowledge on carbon-based photocatalysts. The review concludes with a discussion of potential future research directions in light of the bottlenecks currently encountered. With the proper research and development, metal-based and carbon-based photocatalysts could produce clean hydrogen from water, thereby fueling global development without causing environmental harm.

“…Hydrogen (H 2 ), a clean fuel, is the most promising source of green and sustainable energy to meet the world’s growing energy needs in the near future. Today, hydrogen fuel cells are increasingly being used in some vehicles to replace fossil fuels, which produce huge amounts of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and carbon monoxide (CO). , In fact, elemental hydrogen (H) is the most abundant element in the universe, but molecular hydrogen (H 2 ) is hardly present as a gas in the atmosphere, which contains only 0.00005% hydrogen . The most abundant form of hydrogen on Earth is in the form of water.…”

The design and synthesis of crystalline porous materials is a frontier research area, especially in photo(electro)catalysis, due to their fascinating semiconducting properties. In recent years, crystalline metal−organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have received much research attention in heterogeneous catalysis, ranging from chemical conversion to solar energy production. In addition, COFs with well-ordered framework structures have been extensively studied in the field of heterogeneous photocatalysis for water splitting to produce hydrogen (H 2 ) and oxygen (O 2 ). Due to the synergistic effect of crystallinity, porosity, and conjugation in their frameworks, COFs have been widely explored. In this Review, we aim to discuss the effect of crystallinity of COFs on hydrogen generation via photocatalytic water splitting. We then briefly summarize the basic mechanisms of photocatalytic hydrogen generation, the advantages of crystalline semiconductors over amorphous materials, and the strategic designs of crystalline COFs. In addition, the state-of-the-art developments of crystalline COFs as organic semiconductors for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution have been systematically reviewed. We believe that understanding the structure−property relationship and photocatalytic performance for hydrogen evolution with respect to the long-range structural order of COFs is essential for the further development of innovative crystalline COF-based semiconductors in real-time hydrogen generation applications.
