Abstract

This comprehensive review explores recent electrochemical energy conversion and storage advancements, focusing on revolutionary catalyst strategies. The discussion covers single-atom catalysts, emphasizing their applications and unique advantages. Metal–Organic frameworks (MOFs) are then examined for their potential in creating single-atom catalysts through various approaches. The exploration extends to dual-atom catalysts, highlighting their distinct attributes, followed by an investigation into binuclear homolog/heterolog dual-metal atom pairs and their contributions. The review concludes by emphasizing the innovative synthesis of MOF-derived metal clusters and their significant implications in energy conversion and storage. Overall, this multifaceted review provides insights into cutting-edge electrochemical catalyst strategies, foreseeing a promising future for energy conversion and storage technologies.
