Zusammenfassung:	Embodiments of the present disclosure describe methods and systems using a hydride-forming Group VI transition metal chalcogenide catalyst, such as MoSx, for selective electrocatalysis of enzyme cofactor regeneration. In particular, a method of electrochemical cofactor regeneration comprising: holding an electrode comprising a Group VI transition metal chalcogenide catalyst at a potential sufficient to form a metal hydride in an aqueous electrolyte solution; and contacting the electrode with an oxidized cofactor to reduce the cofactor, is provided. The reduced cofactor can be used by a cofactor-dependent oxidoreductase to convert a substrate to a desired product and subsequently regenerated.
