Advances in Materials for Energy Harvesting and Storage Technologies

Abstract

Advancements in materials for energy harvesting and storage technologies have become essential in addressing global energy demands and sustainability challenges. Recent developments focus on improving the efficiency, capacity, and durability of energy systems. Energy harvesting, particularly through solar, thermal, and kinetic methods, coupled with high-performance storage materials like batteries and supercapacitors, holds great promise for future energy solutions. This article explores recent innovations in energy materials, examining novel materials for harvesting energy, such as perovskites and thermoelectrics, and their integration with advanced energy storage technologies, including solid-state batteries and flexible supercapacitors.
