Currently the majority of studies report C1products such as carbon monoxide and formate as the major CO2reduction products. A particularly challenging goal within CO2electrochemical reduction is the pursuit of multi-carbon (C2+) products which have been proposed to enable a more economically viable value chain. This review summaries recent development across electro-, photoelectro- and bioelectro-catalyst developments. It also explores the role of device design and operating conditions in enabling C-C bond generation.
