A team of researchers in Israel has developed a two-step electrochemical-chemical cycle for decoupled water splitting with high efficiency. In the two-step electrochemical–thermally activated chemical (E-TAC) cycle process, water is reduced to hydrogen gas at the cathode, liberating OH – ions. —Dotan et al. Shter, Daniel A.
