Abstract
The expanded interest in vitality assets, extraordinary endeavors, advocacy of convenient hardware and electric vehicles globally animates the improvement of energy storage gadgets, e.g., lithium-ion batteries and supercapacitors, toward higher energy density, which essentially relies on new materials utilized in these gadgets. Besides, energy storage materials assume a key part in productive, clean, and adaptable utilization of energy, and are vital for exploiting sustainable power systems. The usage of the thermal energy storage (TES) framework with phase change material (PCM) is a viable route for energy preservation and green-house gas emission reduction. Ongoing advances in atomically thin two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (2DTMDs) have prompted an assortment of promising innovations for nanoelectronics, photonics, energy storage, and so on. Graphene and graphene-based materials have attracted extraordinary consideration due to their interesting properties of high mechanical adaptability, huge surface zone, chemical stability, prevalent electric and thermal conductivities that render them incredible as alternative electrode materials for electrochemical energy storage frameworks. The straightforward Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) and Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) approaches offer another route for the creation of permeable materials for energy storage. Alteration of organic substrates with inorganic polyoxometalate (POM) clusters can be utilized to build nanocomposite materials with improved properties and various functionalities. Nanotechnology offers up new frontiers in materials research and construction to address the energy challenge by forming novel materials, particularly carbon nanoparticles, for efficient energy transformation and capacity, Polyaniline (PANi) as an auspicious material for energy storage/transformation, is merited for serious investigation and further progress. This book chapter discusses the various methods in materials for energy, their storage, and applications in numerous fields.
