As the world transitions towards cleaner energy sources, hydrogen emerges as a key player in sustainable mobility. Hydrogen fuel cells face efficiency challenges, notably during the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Quantum computing innovations are offering solutions to these challenges. By combining classical and quantum methods, research on platinum-based catalysts using cutting-edge quantum computers has shown promising results in improving energy conversion efficiency. Platinum/cobalt catalysts are particularly highlighted for their ability to hasten the ORR by destabilizing intermediates, thus lowering activation energy barriers. Quantum computing's precision in modeling complex chemical interactions paves the way for better catalyst discovery and fuel cell optimization. Market insights suggest that quantum computing developments could make hydrogen fuel cells a more practical choice by 2030, especially in electric vehicles and public transport. The integration of quantum computing not only benefits energy technology but also holds promise for broader industrial applications, with a growing emphasis on sustainable energy solutions. However, challenges such as the infancy of quantum technology and high costs remain. The security implications and sustainability of hydrogen production processes also require attention as quantum computing continues to evolve.
