1. A method of generating hydrogen gas, comprising:

  • providing an aqueous fuel solution comprising a material selected from the group consisting of boranes, polyhedral boranes, borohydride salts, and polyhedral borane salts; and

    contacting the aqueous fuel solution with a hydrogen generation catalyst comprising a support, a first metal selected from the group consisting of cobalt, ruthenium, zinc, molybdenum, manganese, titanium, tin, cadmium, and iridium, the first metal being present in an amount of about 0.05 to about 20% by weight of the hydrogen generation catalyst; and

    a second metal selected from the group consisting of cobalt, ruthenium, zinc, molybdenum, manganese, titanium, tin, cadmium, boron, and iridium to produce hydrogen gas, the second metal being present in an amount of about 0.01 to about 25% by weight of the hydrogen generation catalyst.
