Proton‐coupled electron transfer (PCET) plays a crucial role in a diverse array of natural and artificial energy conversion processes. Herein, we will introduce the fundamentals of electrochemical PCET with a focus on its role in water splitting. Besides, perspectives of future development of PCET are presented with regard to the investigation of reaction mechanisms and the design of advanced electrocatalysts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
