Faraday efficiency (also called faradaic efficiency, faradaic yield, coulombic efficiency or current efficiency) describes the efficiency with which charge (electrons) is transferred in a system facilitating an electrochemical reaction.

Thermodynamic efficiency, is the maximum electrical energy available in the fuel, as calculated by the change in the Gibbs free energy divided by the change in enthalpy of the reaction.

got some definitions, now I can think about what you are saying and learn something - thank you!
Not vying for hearts, hoping to see if my brain still works - LOL
