Abstract

Due to the ever-increasing demand of a greater share of renewable energies for the sustainable supply of energy in the future, long-term energy storage at high round-trip efficiency and low cost becomes a contingent problem requiring researchers and industrial engineers to solve. Using renewable energy resources to make hydrogen or hydrocarbon fuels has been viewed as a viable approach of long-term storage of renewable energies. Water electrolysis for making hydrogen has great potential of converting solar- and wind-based electrical energy to hydrogen conveniently and locally at acceptable efficiency and cost. The accomplishment of research and development of water electrolysis technologies in the 2013-2023 decade is surveyed and discussed for better understanding of the state-of-the-art technologies. Additionally, directions of research and engineering effort for future work is explored and recommended in the paper.
