Metal–organic frameworks for next-generation energy storage devices; a systematic review

Abstract

The future of renewable energy and sustainable transportation depends on advanced energy storage technologies. However, the capacity, durability, and safety issues associated with traditional technologies are often problematic. The rapidly developing field of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) as essential components for the development of new energy storage technologies is investigated in this study. MOFs, which include technologies like batteries, supercapacitors, and fuel cells, provide fascinating platforms for energy storage due to their distinctive structures and configurable porosities. This review describes the underlying engineering, highlights the performance advancements, and examines the difficulties still associated with the application of MOFs. It highlights the value of ongoing study and the potential for MOFs to alter our energy landscape. Overall, this study provides in-depth knowledge of MOFs in terms of energy storage potential and recent developments making them a crucial resource for academics and engineers for providing a foundation with more sustainable energy in the future.
