Advanced electrodes composed of mesoporous NiCo 2 O 4 nanowire arrays on carbon textiles are efficiently fabricated by X. G. Zhang and co‐workers. The electrode architectures presented on page 2630 promise fast electron transport by direct connection to the growth substrate and facileion diffusion paths provided by both the abundant mesoporous structure in nanowires and the large open spaces between neighboring nanowires, which ensures that every nanowire participates in the ultrafast electrochemical reaction.
