The growing demand for clean, renewable energy has intensified the need for efficient and sustainable technologies to produce hydrogen from water. Polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolyzers 鈥� encompassing both proton exchange membrane water electrolyzers (PEMWEs) and anion exchange membrane water electrolyzers (AEMWEs) 鈥� are emerging as promising solutions for green hydrogen production due to their high efficiency, scalability, and ability to integrate with intermittent renewable energy sources. However, to fully unlock the potential of these technologies, significant advancements in materials design and engineering are required. This collection will be structured around two main themes: 

1. Research focusing on electrocatalyst materials and methods
2. Materials development for cell components

Topics include but are not limited to: 

• Material and methods for OER and HER electrocatalyst fabrication 
• Research on PEM electrolyzer components developments, including membranes, ionomers, porous transport layers, gas diffusion layers and bipolar plates
• Catalyst layer fabrication, materials, methods and methodologies for PEM water electrolyzer cells

Manuscripts should be submitted via our鈥�鈥� and the鈥�editorial office鈥痠nformed by email. Please add a 鈥渘ote to the editor鈥� in the submission form when you submit your manuscript to say that this is a submission for this themed collection.鈥�&苍产蝉辫;

The Editorial Office and Guest Editors reserve the right to check the suitability of submissions in relation to the scope of the collection and inclusion of accepted articles in the collection is not guaranteed. All manuscripts will be subject to the journal's usual peer review process. Accepted manuscripts will be added to the online collection as soon as they are online, and they will be published in a regular issue of鈥�Materials Advances.鈥�&苍产蝉辫;
