Abstract Ceria and nickel pattern anodes are prepared and tested in order to gain a fundamental insight into the electrochemical oxidation of hydrogen on either of these surfaces. It is found that ceria is highly active towards electrochemical oxidation of hydrogen with lower polarisation resistance because of the mixed ionic electronic conductivity of ceria. In addition, the activation energy with ceria patterns is much lower indicating that the ceramic catalysed pathway is much faster as well. Thus hydrogen oxidation can proceed on ceria independent of nickel and can indeed be faster than when catalysed by nickel.
