Summary
Lowering the cost of green hydrogen production requires catalysts that produce hydrogen efficiently while using smaller amounts of expensive precious metals. A Korean research team has developed a catalyst that brings three or four ruthenium (Ru) atoms together so they can work cooperatively. The catalyst achieved hydrogen production performance comparable to that of a commercial platinum catalyst while using only one-quarter as much precious metal, potentially helping to lower the cost of green hydrogen production.
