Advancements in Nanomaterials for Sustainable Energy Storage: A Review

Abstract

The global demand for efficient, high-performance, and sustainable energy storage systems has accelerated research into nanomaterials for batteries and supercapacitors. This review highlights recent advancements in nanotechnology that have enabled significant improvements in energy density, power output, charge/discharge rates, and cycle life. Nanostructured materials such as graphene, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), transition metal oxides, and nanocomposites have demonstrated remarkable electrochemical properties, making them ideal candidates for next-generation energy storage devices. The integration of nanotechnology into lithium-ion batteries, sodium-ion batteries, and supercapacitors is discussed, with a focus on material design, fabrication techniques, and performance optimization. Challenges such as scalability, cost-effectiveness, and environmental impact are also addressed. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the role of nanomaterials in transforming energy storage systems toward more sustainable and efficient solutions.
