I am looking for information regarding the hydrogen bonding of solvated hydrogen peroxide. While water may form up to four hydrogen bonds with neighbouring water molecules to form a tetrahedral structure, how many hydrogen bonds are available to a molecule of hydrogen peroxide surrounded by water? Can it form up to six such bonds, or is this restricted due to interactions between lone electron pairs on the oxygens? Is there a reliable value for the solvation energy of H2O2?
Dear Laith,
In addition to the excellent publications indicated by John, you may look through a number of pages summarize computational findings of the hydrogen bonding between H2O2 and H2O:

Hoping this will be helpful,
