Abstract Constructing synergistic dual sites has been well‐recognized as an updated avenue in constructing binary‐component Pt/support compounds such materials undergo undesirable interfacial barriers and complicated synthesis. Here an integration of ultrafine Pt nanocrystals on oxygen‐deficient CoMoO 4 nanosheets is reported that achieved superior alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activity (110 mV @ 1000 mA cm −2 ) with a reversed hydrogen deliver effect between bifunctional active sites. With perceptions from comprehensive experimental and theoretical results, the HER process occurs in three steps: pronounced water dissociation capability on CoMoO 4 , facile hydrogen transfer to Pt nanoparticles, and optimized hydrogen desorption on the Pt catalytic site. Thanks to the dual site effect, the Pt/CoMoO 4 catalyst boosts HER activity in alkaline large‐density seawater electrolysis and anion exchange membrane electrolyzer (AEM). This work not only provides a valid intensification strategy aimed at support‐type electrocatalysts but also takes insights into dual‐site mechanisms for high‐performance HER.
