N2 - As demand for clean energy continues to increase, scientists are exploring alternative sources to fossil fuels, which are a major contributor to climate change. Hydrogen (H2) has been identified as a promising solution due to its ability to be derived from water-splitting using electricity, solar, or thermal energies. Solar water-splitting is a conventional and eco-friendly approach for producing green H2 with high energy storage capacity among various power sources. Perovskite (PSK) minerals have emerged as a popular choice for H2 production due to their unique optoelectronic properties, including high carrier mobility, tunable bandgap, and strong light absorption. These properties make PSK materials suitable for perovskite-based H2 generation processes, including photocatalytic, electrocatalytic, photo-electrocatalytic, and thermochemical processes for hydrogen generation. This investigation comprehensively overviews recent breakthroughs, challenges, and perspectives in PSK-based hydrogen generation systems. We discuss the reasons behind the selection of PSK materials, including their high efficiency, stability, and low cost, as well as opportunities to enhance their performance through material optimization and device engineering. Overall, PSK-based H2 Evolution systems hold significant promise for addressing the pressing energy and environmental challenges of our time.
