Abstract: Years of study have shown that creating a commercial photoelectrode to solve particular bottlenecks, such as low charge separation and injection efficiency, short carrier diffusion length and lifespan, and poor stability, requires the employment of a variety of components. Developing photovoltaic-electrolysis, photocatalytic, and photoelectrochemical approaches to accelerate hydrogen production from solar energy has been highly competitive. Photoelectrochemical water splitting utilizing nanoporous materials is one of the promising approaches to produce hydrogen more efficiently, cost-effectively, and on a long-term basis. Nanoporous materials have been highly used in photoelectrochemical water-splitting systems and are crucial in numerous applications. Those materials have a porous structure and excellent conductivity, enabling the deposition of transition metal atoms and electrochemically active chemicals on a large active surface area. However, there remains a dearth of review articles exploring the application of nanoporous materials in photoelectrochemical reactions. Therefore, this review provides bibliometric statistics and various perspectives on a range of nanoporous materials, including indium, nickel, gold, copper, lead, silver, aluminum, silicon, tin, iron, zinc, titanium, bismuth vanadate, cadmium sulfide, and zeolites. Additionally, this review offers a comprehensive assessment of worldwide studies on utilizing nanoporous materials in photoelectrochemical cells. We show how morphological modifications to materials may improve charge transfer and, as a consequence, overall power conversion efficiency.ke The superior catalytic performance of nanostructures with varying levels of complexity has been discovered in photoelectrochemical reactions. Finally, significant issues and future research directions in the domains are discussed.
