Abstract

Energy storage technology is fundamental to modern power systems, especially as renewable energy sources continue to grow. The thermal properties of materials are critical for achieving efficient energy storage, with nanomaterials emerging as a transformative class of materials due to their unique thermal characteristics. This paper explores the role of nanomaterials in enhancing energy storage applications, focusing on their thermal conductivity, specific heat capacity, thermal expansion, and diffusivity. Through case studies and recent advancements, this paper highlights the potential of nanomaterials in high-efficiency energy storage systems, including phase change materials (PCMs), supercapacitors, and lithium-ion batteries, while also addressing challenges and future directions.

Keywords: Thermal properties; nanomaterials; energy storage; thermal conductivity; phase change materials (PCMs); supercapacitors; lithium-ion batteries
