abstract = {Progress in the development of CO2 reductioncatalysts has
revealed more stable and selective options for solarfuel
production. In most cases, the catalysts are tested under
steady-state conditions. However, to become a reliable
long-term storagesolution for renewable energy, particularly
photovoltaics (PV), CO2electroreduction must tolerate power
intermittency. Directcoupling of CO2 electrolyzers to PV
devices enables carbonutilization and efficient energy
storage but requires catalysts thatmaintain consistent
performance under dynamic power input.Herein, we select an
Ag nanoparticle gas diffusion cathode withstable CO
production across a wide current density range. Thesystem,
directly coupled to a hardware-emulated Si-PV
moduleoperating under a realistic sunny day profile,
achieves $96\%$ energy coupling efficiency and reaches a
cumulative solar-to-chemical(CO) efficiency of $8.8\%$ in 1
day. This study demonstrates the potential of Ag-based
cathodes for robust performance in variable PV-powered
systems and introduces a novel test methodology that better
reflects real-world PV-electrolyzer integration,
therebyadvancing practical implementation of solar-driven
CO2 reduction.},
