Abstract
Water splitting, also known process with immense potential in the global shift toward sustainable energy systems. This process involves breaking down water (H2O) into its, wind, or hydropower. As the world seeks alternatives to fossil fuels to mitigate climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, hydrogen has emerged as a promising energy carrier due to its high energy content and environmentally friendly combustion, which produces only water as a by-product.demonstrating the decomposition of water using direct current electricity. Since then, the field has evolved significantly, driven by advancements in electrochemical systems, materials science, and catalysis. materials science, and catalysis. Modern water splitting can be broadly categorized into three primary methods: electrolysis, photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting, and thermochemical water splitting. Among these, electrolysis is the most mature and widely researched technique, involving the application of electrical energy to drive the non-spontaneous reaction.
