The poor stability of ruthenium-based catalysts has greatly hampered their application in polymer electrolyte membrane water electrolysis. Here, the authors uncover the decisive role of reaction route on catalytic performance, which enables the screening of efficient ruthenium-based water oxidation catalysts.
