Hydrogen Peroxide as a Sustainable Energy Carrier: Electrocatalytic Production of Hydrogen Peroxide and the Fuel Cell.
TL;DR: Hydrogen peroxide is regarded as an environmentally benign energy carrier because it can be produced by the electrocatalytic two-electron reduction of O2, which is abundant in air, using solar cells; the hydrogen peroxide thus produced could then be readily stored and then used as needed to generate electricity through the use of hydrogenperoxide fuel cells.

Kinetics of sodium borohydride direct oxidation and oxygen reduction in sodium hydroxide electrolyte. Part I. BH4- electro-oxidation on Au and Ag catalysts
TL;DR: In this paper, a strong influence of the ratio of sodium hydroxide versus sodium borohydride is found: whereas the theoretical stoichiometry does forecast that eight hydroxides ions are needed for each bor-ohydride ion, the experimental results prove that a larger excess hydride ion is necessary in quasi-steady state conditions, when the above-mentioned ratio is unity (1M NaOH and 1M NaBH 4 ).
