One of the most significant applications of nanotechnology in energy is in the development of advanced energy storage systems. Nanomaterials can be used to improve the performance of batteries and supercapacitors. For example, nano-engineered electrodes in lithium-ion batteries can increase storage capacity, charging speed, and lifespan. Additionally, nanotechnology can facilitate the creation of new types of batteries, such as solid-state batteries, which offer higher energy densities and enhanced safety.
