Constructing efficient and low-cost oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts operating in seawater is essential for green hydrogen production but remains a great challenge. In this study, we report an iron doped cobalt carbonate hydroxide nanowire array on nickel foam (Fe-CoCH/NF) as a high-efficiency OER electrocatalyst. In alkaline seawater, such Fe-CoCH/NF demands an overpotential of 387 mV to drive 500 mA cm -2 , superior to that of CoCH/NF (597 mV). Moreover, it achieves excellent electrochemical and structural stability in alkaline seawater.
