The experimental findings demonstrate that the CO yield of the Ni/CeZrO<sub>2</sub> catalyst is remarkably augmented to 673.5 μmol g<sup>−1</sup> h<sup>−1</sup> under concentrated light radiation (4.0 W cm<sup>−2</sup>), which is a substantial increase of 70.6-fold in CO yield and 69.73-fold in energy conversion efficiency when compared to the 9.4 μmol g<sup>−1</sup> h<sup>−1</sup> yield observed under standard irradiation conditions (0.4 W cm<sup>−2</sup>). This success to the decrease in bandgap with the incorporation of Ce and the synergized catalytic mechanism is attributed. Specifically, these sites achieve rational accommodation of reactants and accelerate the reaction kinetic.
