Three-dimensional (3D) hollow nanosphere electrocatalysts that convert CO.sub.2 into formate with high current density and Faradaic efficiency (FE). The SnO.sub.2 nanospheres were constructed from small, interconnected SnO.sub.2 nanocrystals. The size of the constituent SnO.sub.2 nanocrystals was controlled between 2-10 nm by varying the calcination temperature and observed a clear correlation between nanocrystal size and formate production. In situ Raman and time-dependent X-ray diffraction measurements confirmed that SnO.sub.2 nanocrystals were reduced to metallic Sn and resisted microparticle agglomeration during CO.sub.2 reduction. The nanosphere catalysts outperformed comparably sized, non-structured SnO.sub.2 nanoparticles and commercially-available SnO.sub.2 with a heterogeneous size distribution.
