Functional Biomass‐Derived Materials for the Development of Sustainable Batteries

Abstract With a continually evolving society and increasing environmental energy concerns, green biomass materials are attracting considerable attention in the field of energy storage owing to their low cost, environmental friendliness, and excellent storage capacity. Biomass materials prepared by various methods have been used as electrodes in secondary batteries. In this review, we discuss the application scope of different types of biomass and biomass‐derived materials in zinc‐air, lithium‐ion, and lithium‐sulfur batteries. The application of biomass and biomass‐derived materials in batteries is gaining increasing attention and is expected to drive many exciting innovations in the field of sustainable energy storage technologies.
