Mimicking hydrogenases with synthetic complexes is a promising strategy for the design of Earth‐abundant electrocatalysts for H 2 evolution as alternative to platinum. Here, we describe a bio‐inspired FeFe electrocatalyst, with a semi‐bridging μ‐CO ligand, active and stable for H 2 evolution in acidic aqueous solutions after its physiadsorption onto carbon‐based electrodes.
