Electrocatalysis Rigor & Reproducibility Workshop

The University of Washington will host the Electrocatalysis Rigor & Reproducibility Workshop from July 8 – 10, 2025.

Addressing Rigor and Reproducibility in Electrocatalysis

Electrocatalysis is a broad research area of fundamental importance in developing new technologies in clean energy and electrosynthesis. Two key examples are production of green hydrogen by using renewable electricity for water electrolysis and electroreduction of CO2 to convert captured CO2 into valuable chemicals and fuels.

The Workshop on Rigor and Reproducibility in Electrocatalysis will bring together key electrocatalysis researchers from the US and abroad to examine how research in electrocatalysis can meet the highest standards of scientific inquiry. The primary goals of the Workshop are:

• Identify, evaluate, and codify practices and expectations for conducting and reporting rigorous and reproducible research in electrocatalysis,
• Strengthen the caliber of electrocatalysis research through exchange of scientific ideas among researchers, and
• Foster relationships that promote professional development of current researchers and recruiting of new and diverse talent to the field.

The workshop will consist of five sessions with ample breakout time to develop a set of standards for research in electrocatalysis.
