Designing efficient, durable, and cheap bifunctional electrocatalysts is a challenging goal in water splitting. Herein, trivanadium‐substituted Keggin‐type polyoxometalate H6PV3Mo9O40 (POM) and Fe0.2Ni0.8Co2O4 (FNCO) are in situ grown onto nickel foam (NF) yielding a self‐supporting nanoflower‐like...
