Environmentally sustainable hydrogen‐evolving electrocatalysts are key in a renewable fuel economy, and ligand‐based proton and electron transfer could circumvent the need for precious metal ions in electrocatalytic H 2 production. Herein, we show that electrocatalytic generation of H 2 by a redox‐active ligand complex of Al 3+ occurs at −1.16 V vs. SCE (500 mV overpotential).
