“…A transition to renewable fossil free or carbon neutral fuels is therefore highly desired and urgent. − Rising effort is made to store renewable energy in chemical bonds where hydrogen, with its high gravimetric energy density, is a very promising energy carrier. − Unfortunately, most of the hydrogen utilized today is produced by steam re-forming from methane, in which methane is transformed at high temperatures to hydrogen with an accompanying release of carbon dioxide. , An interesting and carbon neutral method to generate hydrogen is sustainable water electrolysis, in which water is split into molecular oxygen and hydrogen with the use of renewable electricity . By powering of this process with solar or wind energy, the obtained hydrogen is carbon dioxide neutral and fully renewable, neglecting the carbon footprint of the manufactured wind, solar, and electrolysis devices. ,− Not only is splitting water photochemically, electrochemically, or photoelectrochemically of high interest for hydrogen generation, but a similar approach can also be utilized for the reduction of carbon dioxide to different chemicals (carbon monoxide, methane, or smaller organic molecules) or the reduction of nitrogen to form ammonia in a carbon neutral process. ,− The formation of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, methane, organic molecules, or ammonia from N 2 is done via reduction of their starting products and is thus taking place at the cathode of the electrochemical cell. The reaction at the anode is instead oxidation of water or hydroxide ions to molecular dioxygen.…”
