Herein, we develop innovative p-block Bi-doped Co3 O4 nanoflakes (Bi-Co3 O4 NFAs) on nickel foam, which exhibit excellent electrocatalytic activity for both glucose oxidation (GOR) and H2 evolution reactions (HER). The two-electrode GOR-HER electrolyzer using Bi-Co3 O4 NFAs as both the cathode and anode shows a remarkable reduced operation voltage of 1.48 V at 10 mA cm-2 , superior to the 1.66 V of the OER-HER electrolyzer, demonstrating promising potential for advanced H2 production featuring energy saving and simultaneously produced value-added chemicals...
