DESCRIPTION:The storage of renewably-generated energy as hydrogen via the 
 electrolysis of water is a fundamental cornerstone of a sustainable hydrog
 en economy. Conventional electrolysers usually require stable power inputs
  in order to operate effectively and safely and so may be unsuited to harn
 essing renewable power\, which is often intermittent and diffuse. Decouple
 d Electrolysis (see\, for example: Nature Chem. 2013\, 5\, 403-409\; Scien
 ce\, 2014\, 345\, 1326-1330\; J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2016\, 138\, 6707–6710\;
  Joule\, 2018\, 2\, 1390-1395\; Adv. Energy Mater. 2020\, 2002453\; Electr
 ochim. Acta\, 2020\, 331\, 135255) has the potential to overcome some of t
 he challenges surrounding electrolysis using low and/or sporadic power inp
 uts (especially those related to gas crossover) as the decoupling of the t
 wo half reactions of water splitting allows the oxygen and hydrogen evolut
 ion reactions to be performed at different times\, in different places and
  at rates that are not linked to each other. In this talk\, we shall give 
 an overview of decoupled electrolysis using liquid redox mediators
