Under the current double challenge of energy and the environment, an effective nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) has become a very urgent need. However, the largest production of ammonia gas today is carried out by the Haber–Bosch process, which has many disadvantages, among which energy consumption and air pollution are typical. As the best alternative procedure, electrochemistry has received extensive attention. In this paper, a catalyst loaded with Fe3 clusters on the two-dimensional material C2N (Fe3@C2N) is proposed to achieve effective electrochemical NRR, and our first-principles calculations reveal that the stable Fe3@C2N exhibits excellent catalytic performance for electrochemical nitrogen fixation with a limiting potential of 0.57 eV, while also suppressing the major competing hydrogen evolution reaction. Our findings will open a new door for the development of non-precious single-cluster catalysts for effective nitrogen reduction reactions.
