The development of efficient and durable high-current-density hydrogen production electrocatalysts is crucial for the large-scale production of green hydrogen and the early realization of hydrogen economic blueprint. Herein, the evolution of grain boundaries through Cu-mediated NiMo bimetallic oxides (MCu-BNiMo), which leading to the high efficiency of electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution process (HER) in industrial-grade current density, is successfully driven. The optimal MCu0.10-BNiMo demonstrates ultrahigh current density (>2 A cm-2) at a smaller overpotential in 1 m KOH (572 mV), than that of BNiMo, which does not have lattice strain. Experimental and theoretical calculations reveal that MCu0.10-BNiMo with optimal lattice strain generated more electrophilic Mo sites with partial oxidation owing to accelerated charge transfer from Cu to Mo, which lowers the energy barriers for H* adsorption. These synergistic effects lead to the enhanced HER performance of MCu0.10-BNiMo. More importantly, industrial application of MCu0.10-BNiMo operated in alkaline electrolytic cell is also determined, with its current density reached 0.5 A cm-2 at 2.12 V and 0.1 A cm-2 at 1.79 V, which is nearly five-fold that of the state-of-the-art HER electrocatalyst Pt/C. The strategy provides valuable insights for achieving industrial-scale hydrogen production through a highly efficient HER electrocatalyst
