<br/>Tailoring the structure of the electrified interface at the atomic and molecular levels can provide very valuable insight to understand and tune the electrocatalytic activity and/or selectivity of renewable energy conversion reactions. Fundamental work on well-ordered electrified interfaces is pivotal to understand the factors controlling both activity and selectivity. The interplay between the structure and composition of the electrochemical interface and the surface charge controls the electrocatalytic performance of energy conversion reactions.<br/>In this talk, I will present some recent strategies aiming to understand the structure-properties relations for electrochemical energy conversion reactions. In particular, I will focus on our recent investigations on well-defined Cu surfaces for CO and CO<sub>2</sub> electroreduction.
