Abstract: Fiber materials have demonstrated significant competitive advantages in the field of electrocatalytic water splitting. Their unique characteristics—including high specific surface area, robust conductive networks, customizable properties, and the potential for hybridization with metal materials—make them prime candidates for catalytic applications. This review begins by exploring the fundamental principles of electrocatalytic water splitting, then categorizes the various types of fibers currently employed in this domain, and finally highlights the diverse roles that fiber materials play. In summary, the article outlines future research trajectories, potential applications, and anticipated challenges of fiber materials in electrocatalytic water splitting. This comprehensive review aims to foster a deeper understanding of this critical field and ultimately advance clean energy technologies.
