Rational design of low-cost, highly efficient, and stable electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) has attracted wide attention. Herein, 3D RuCu nanocrystals (NCs) are successfully synthesized by a facile wet chemistry method, in which amorphous RuCu nanosheets are directly grown on crystalline Cu nanotubes (NTs). Importantly, the obtained 3D RuCu NCs only need 18 and 73 mV to deliver the current density of 10 mA cm(-2)for HER in alkaline and neutral media, respectively. Density functional theory calculations and experiments reveal that the Ru sites on the surface of amorphous nanosheets are the highly active centers for HER. Moreover, this catalyst can expose more surface area for water splitting compared to pure nanosheets because the unique 3D structure can effectively prevent the aggregation of nanosheets. Meanwhile, the interface between amorphous nanosheets and crystalline NTs is essential to boost the HER performance because the amorphous phase with many unsaturated bonds can facilitate adsorption of reactants and crystalline Cu with superior conductivity can promote the transfer of electrons. This work provides a facile method to prepare an original 3D Ru-based electrocatalyst with highly active HER performance in wide pH values.

Wind power is positioned as one of the fastest-growing energy sources today, while also being a mature technology with a strong capacity for creating employment and guaranteeing environmental sustainability. However, the stochastic nature of wind may affect the integration of power plants into power systems and the availability of generation capacity. In this sense, as in the case of conventional power plants, wind power installations should be able to help maintain power system stability and reliability. To help achieve this objective, a significant number of countries have developed so-called grid interconnection agreements. These are designed to define the technical and behavioral requirements that wind power installations, as well as other power plants, must comply with when seeking connection to the national network. These documents also detail the tasks that should be conducted to certify such installations, so these can be commercially exploited. These certification processes allow countries to assess wind turbine and wind power plant simulation models. These models can then be used to estimate and simulate wind power performance under a variety of scenarios. Within this framework, and with a particular focus on the new Spanish grid code, the present paper addresses the validation process of dynamic wind turbine models followed in three countries-Spain, Germany and South Africa. In these three countries, and as a novel option, it has been proposed that these models form part of the commissioning and certification processes of wind power plants.
