The molar ratio of dopant and ZrO 2 has been taken (0.1:0.9) and synthesized by a solid-state reaction route. In this work, we have reported the effect of Mg doping in ZrO 2 for boosting the performance of ZrO 2 based hydroelectric cell. The strategically synthesized oxygen-deficient nanoporous metal oxide used in HEC splits H 2O molecules to form OH − and H + ions, which are collected by Zn anode and Ag inert cathode affixed onto metal oxide pellet. Hydroelectric cell generate current and voltage due to redox reaction, which sustains by continuous dissociation of physiosorbed water due to the electric field generated in the nanopores. In this direction, the Hydroelectric Cell (HEC), a device that produces clean and green energy from water splitting without use of electrolyte, acid/alkali, heat/light is a unique invention. Clean energy generation is of utmost requirement to cope up with greenhouse gases emission. Energy generation sources are prime causes of greenhouse gases. Global warming has emerged as a very serious issue, and it demands immediate reduction of greenhouse gases.
