Dimensionally stable anodes (DSAs) have been established as anode material in the industrially important chlor‐alkali process, owing to their long‐term stability, high activity, and reasonable chlorine selectivity under operation conditions. Now, a new material, based on the idea of single‐atom catalysis, has been reported, which reveals higher activity and chlorine selectivity than DSAs.
