DESCRIPTION:Prof. Chuan Zhao\nHydrogen holds the promise as green energy c
 arriers for global scale storage of renewable energy\, e.g.\, solar and wi
 nd\, enabling the continuous usage of these diffusive and intermittent ene
 rgy sources when used together with fuel cells.  Water electrolyser is a 
 cornerstone technology for the hydrogen economy\, which requests highly ef
 ficient\, low cost\, and robust catalyst materials to reduce its current l
 evels of energy consumption and cost. However\, currently there is a gap b
 etween lab-scale research and industrial scale water electrolysis\, effect
 uated by catalysts\, cell design\, and operation conditions.\n\nThis talk 
 highlights the current challenges and opportunities for water electrolysis
 \, and our efforts in developing electrocatalysts for oxygen evolution rea
 ctions (OER) and hydrogen evolution reactions (HER) in alkaline and acid e
 lectrolytes\, as well as operando methodologies for understanding the cata
 lytic processes and gas bubble behaviours. The commercialisation of some o
 ur work for water electrolyser industry also will be introduced to highlig
 ht the significance of material design from atomic to macroscopic to indus
 trial scale.\n
