Keggin‐type polyoxometalate anions [XM12O40]n− are versatile, as their applications in interdisciplinary areas show. The Keggin anion [CoW12O40]6− turns into an efficient and robust electrocatalyst upon its confinement in the well‐defined void space of ZIF‐8, a metal–organic framework (MOF). [H6CoW1...
