Abstract

The increasing population demands clean and green energy, encouraging scientists and technologists to make their best effort to develop renewable, available, and low-cost acquisition of non-conventional energy. Researchers in Catalysis and Electrochemistry, working together, have reached good achievements when focused in electrochemistry studies that are under development for alternative, renewable, capture, conversion, storage, supply, uses, and applications of energy. This is called Electrochemistry in energy. The symbiosis Electrochemistry-Catalysis is fundamental in this field for successful results. Important achievements are nowadays found in literature and some of them are reported here with emphasis in the use of electrochemistry for electrosynthesis of the named photoelectrocatalysts. Thus, photoelectrocatalysts, photocatalysts, and catalysts are of importance in many of the aspects involved in the term Electrochemistry in energy. This is such a wide field, with many aspects presented here, that the authors give an appropriate view and pedagogical standpoint for the readers.
