Abstract: This paper reviews water electrolysis technologies for hydrogen production and also surveys the state of the art of water electrolysis integration with renewable energies. First, attention is paid to the thermodynamic and electrochemical processes to better understand how electrolysis cells work and how they can be combined to build big electrolysis modules. The electrolysis process and the characteristics, advantages, drawbacks, and challenges of the three main existing electrolysis technologies, namely alkaline, polymer electrolyte membrane, and solid oxide electrolyte, are then discussed. Current manufacturers and the main features of commercially available electrolyzers are extensively reviewed. Finally, the possible configurations allowing the integration of water electrolysis units with renewable energy sources in both autonomous and grid-connected systems are presented and some relevant demonstration projects are commented.

Critical role and modification of surface states in hematite films for enhancing oxygen evolution activity
Myeongwhun Pyeon,Tero-Petri Ruoko,Jennifer Leduc,Yakup Gönüllü,Meenal Deo,Nikolai V. Tkachenko,Sanjay Mathur +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the oxygen plasma treatment resulted in an increase of particle size and augmented surface roughening by densification of grains, and it induced saturated surface states with reactive oxygen species (O−, OH−), evident in the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.

I and i
TL;DR: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one, which seems an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.
