Abstract
Considering the huge motivating, ongoing research on the upcoming hydrogen economy, the present chapter discusses green/renewable production of hydrogen to be used as environmentally benign fuel. The most popular electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution is discussed as the most significant and approachable path for green hydrogen production. Transition metal electrocatalysts are reviewed, focusing on their properties, synthesis, and catalytic activities. Different strategies to increase the electrocatalytic efficiency for hydrogen evolution reactions are recalled. Essential methods of green hydrogen production using renewable energy sources solar light are mentioned. Photocatalytic (PC), Photoelectrochemical (PEC), and Photovoltaic electrochemical (PV-EC) water splitting methods are explained with examples. Hydrogen purification using membrane methods has been discussed. The future aspects as well as the applications and storage of green hydrogen are also included in the chapter.
