A low-cost, nanostructured composite material developed by researchers at UC Santa Cruz has shown performance comparable to Pt/C as a catalyst for the electrochemical splitting of water to produce hydrogen. Carbon-based materials (such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, and amorphous carbon) have also been explored as viable catalysts for HER.

Audi e-diesel has the potential to make conventional combustion engines operate almost CO2-neutrally. The green power generated on site in the hydroelectric power station produces hydrogen and oxygen from water by means of electrolysis. This hydrogen, together with carbon dioxide, is converted in a two-step power-to-liquid process.
