Synthesis of 3D graphene by laser irradiation has emerged as a promising approach due to its multifunctionality, cost effectiveness, and simplicity. Herein, the emerging applications of laser‐induced graphene (LIG) in batteries are focused on. This type of 3D graphitic carbon offers several advantages, including 1) binder‐free self‐supported electrode configuration, 2) high electrical and ionic conductivity, 3) hierarchical porosity, and 4) controllable composition upon laser exposure. A comprehensive review of the current status of LIG synthesis and its development for battery applications is discussed. This includes using LIG as an electrode for lithium‐ and sodium‐ion batteries, a current collector for lithium‐metal batteries, an electrocatalyst for metal–air batteries, and a host and interlayer for lithium–sulfur batteries. Finally, the article concludes by giving the authors’ perspectives and outlook for developing this class of carbon materials for advanced battery systems.
