Our modern and technological society requests enhanced energy storage devices to tackle the current necessities. In addition, wearable electronic devices are being demanding because they offer many facilities to the person wearing it. In this manuscript, a historical review is made about the available energy storage devices focusing on super-capacitors and lithium-ion batteries, since they currently are the most present in the industry, and the possible polymeric materials suitable on wearable energy storage devices. Polymers are a suitable option because they not only possess remarkable mechanical resistance, flexibility, long life-times, easy manufacturing techniques and low cost in addition to they can be environmentally friendly, nontoxic, and even biodegradable too. Moreover, the electrical and electrochemical polymer properties can be tunning with suitable fillers giving to versatile conducting polymer composites with a good cost and properties' ratio. Although the advances are promising, there are still many drawbacks that need to be overcome. Future research should focus on improving both the performance of materials and their processability on an industrial scale, where additive manufacturing offers many possibilities. The sustainability of new energy storage devices should not

“…Most importantly, these materials can be obtained and upcycled from biomass waste, discarded from domestic, industrial, and agricultural streams which could help reduce the carbon footprint and cost from the manufacture of structural batteries. [87][88][89][90][91] Despite their green traits, biopolymer electrolytes (BEs) share the same challenges facing other polymer systems with regards to having low ionic conductivity and unsatisfactory mechanical performance and hence are not inherently suitable for structural batteries on their own. Similar to other polymerbased electrolytes, techniques used to improve the mechanical strength of these sustainable polymer electrolytes include polymer blending, crosslinking and addition of inorganic fillers like carbon nanotubes and LATP.…”

The structural battery is a multifunctional energy storage device that aims to address the weight and volume efficiency issues that conventional batteries face, especially in electric transportation. By combining the functions of mechanical load bearing and energy storage, structural batteries can reduce the reliance on, or even eventually replace the main power source in an electric vehicle or a drone. However, one of the key challenges to be addressed before achieving multifunctionality in structural batteries would be the design of a suitable multifunctional structural battery electrolyte. The structural battery electrolyte is the constituent that provides mechanical integrity under flexural loads or impact and hence determines the electrochemical and much of the mechanical performance of a structural battery device. This concept paper aims to cover the key considerations and challenges facing the design of structural battery electrolytes. In addition, the main approaches to surmount these challenges are highlighted, keeping design aspects like sustainability and recyclability in view.[a] M.

“…The energy crisis, climate change, increased energy consumption and growing awareness of environmental protection needs have imposed the challenge of sustainable development, pushing industrial and academic research toward efficient, clean, ecological and high-performance materials and equipment for energy storage and conversion [1]. The energy produced by renewable resources needs to be stored by electrochemical energy storage devices from which it can be extracted at a later time to perform necessary tasks [2]. These devices are required to have increasingly improved energy and power density.…”

Fish industry waste is attracting growing interest for the production of environmentally friendly materials for several different applications, due to the potential for reduced environmental impact and increased socioeconomic benefits. Recently, the application of fish industry waste for the synthesis of value-added materials and energy storage systems represents a feasible route to strengthen the overall sustainability of energy storage product lines. This review focused on an in-depth outlook on the advances in fish byproduct-derived materials for energy storage devices, including lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), sodium-ion (NIBs) batteries, lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs), supercapacitors and protein batteries. For each of these, the latest applications were presented together with approaches to improve the electrochemical performance of the obtained materials. By analyzing the recent literature on this topic, this review aimed to contribute to further advances in the sustainability of energy storage devices.
