AbstractIncreasing energy demands coupled with dependence on fossil fuels have promoted research into efficient renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, geothermal and wave energy. These intermittent energy sources must be used in conjunction with devices capable of storing energy. Owing to their high energy density, affordability, scalability, and environmental safety, water-based (aqueous) metal-ion batteries have been proposed as a viable solution for large-scale or grid-scale energy storage.
