Context:
We and others have observed that much time, effort, and funding are generally lost in trying to interpret, understand, and compare data and results among researchers. Protocols, for not only testing but for presenting or publishing results will save us all time, effort, and misinterpretation. These protocols will also lower the barrier to entry for new researchers. Such protocols will not only benefit individual projects but accelerate development of the technology. However, such development only works if it stems from active community engagement and collaboration.

This planned workshop is a great opportunity to accelerate the development of protocols and community practices for the benefit of all. We anticipate that participants will see the opportunity and the value, including the opportunity to help establish best practices and co-author papers that will define the field going forward.

Workshop Objectives:

• understand the needs of the community for effective comparison of results based on surveys;
• review and refine draft frameworks for standardized testing by component or configuration;
• hold face-to-face discussions about protocol development in breakout sessions;
• refine methods based on community engagement;
• everage international efforts to increase harmony across the field;
• realize increased usage of database and Zotero capability for community benefit.

Representative Intended Outputs:

• Protocols Version 1.0
• Documentation on further needs/gaps in protocols and benchmarking in each technology pathway;
• A perspective or viewpoint paper on crosscutting and/or overall advanced water-splitting technology pathways.
