With the increasing severity of environmental problems and the increasing shortage of energy, renewable energy storage and conversion technologies have become an important point of research in recent years. Hydrogen energy is considered to be an ideal energy carrier by virtue of high energy density, cleanliness, environmental protection, diversification of storage forms and the like. In the existing hydrogen production method, electrolytic water is extremely potential to produce hydrogen, especially, new energy sources such as solar energy, wind energy and the like are combined to serve as intermediate transition energy sources to convert electric energy to be supplied to an electrolytic water device, however, the thermodynamics and dynamics of hydrogen evolution reaction occurring on a cathode in the water electrolysis process are slower, and high overpotential is required in the process of the electrolytic water Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER). Therefore, there is a need to develop electrocatalysts with high catalytic activity and stability and low cost to improve the water electrolysis efficiency, providing a research basis for sustainable clean hydrogen energy for future development. Platinum is currently the most effective one of the electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reactions, but its wide application is severely hampered by the high cost due to the limited reserves of platinum in nature.

Among them, the transition metal-carbon system is receiving a lot of attention because of its low cost and tunable electronic structure. However, the hydrogen evolution reactivity of the currently available transition metal-carbon systems is still relatively low, especially in acidic, basic and neutral full pH electrolytes, which are far less catalytically active than noble metal platinum carbon catalysts.
