In article number 1902090, Sung Jong Yoo and co‐workers demonstrate the concept of producing biomaterial‐derived catalysts using bean sprouts. The synthesized Co 2 P/NC is applied to an anion exchange membrane fuel cell as an efficient oxygen reduction reaction catalyst, and its feasibility is proven. The proposed approach provides a substantial synthetic platform for applying an easily obtained bio‐derived material to energy conversion and storage systems.
