The energy efficiency of water electrolysis was considerably improved under a high magnetic field. This was proved by measuring the cell voltage, the IR-drop, and the electrode potentials for the electrolysis which was galvanostatically operated in alkaline (4.46 and KOH) and acidic ( ) solutions. A large reduction in the cell voltage was achieved in a magnetic field, especially at a high current density. The decrease of the IR-drop, which was measured by the current interrupter method, depended on the concentration of electrolyte solutions. In a magnetic field, the oxygen overpotential was reduced more than the hydrogen overpotential.
