Summary

2D nanomaterials have recently attracted considerable attention in energy storage technology. Supercapacitors and batteries are two recent advancements in energy storage technology that have significantly assisted mankind in meeting their energy demands. 2D nanomaterials must possess different features, including a large surface area, outstanding electronic conductivity, exceptional electrochemical properties, and superior thermal stabilities for batteries and supercapacitors to work well. This chapter provides a concise summary of the use of 2D nanomaterials, such as graphene analogs, MXenes, chalcogenides, and transition metal oxides/hydrides, in batteries and supercapacitors. The relationship between the composition of 2D nanomaterials and their electrochemical properties depends entirely on the storage performance of the supercapacitors and batteries.
