Product Description Sustainable Materials for Next Generation Energy Devices: Challenges and Opportunities presents the latest state-of-the-art knowledge and innovation related to environmentally-friendly functional materials that can be developed for, and employed in, producing a feasible next generation of energy storage and conversion devices. The book is broken up into three sections, covering Energy Storage, Energy Conversion and Advanced Concepts. It will be an important reference for researchers, engineers and students who want to gain extensive knowledge in green and/or sustainable functional materials and their applications. Review Covers innovative green and sustainable materials used in next generation devices for renewable energy conversion and storage From the Back Cover In this new era the global economy is being revitalized and energy devices both in static and mobile modes have become essential building blocks in IoT to sustain continuous global development. Sustainable Materials for Next Generation Energy Devices presents the latest state-of-the-art knowledge and innovative know-how related to environmentally-friendly functional materials that can be developed for and employed in producing a feasible next generation of energy storage and conversion devices. Performance of energy devices is strongly dependent upon the innovation in the device architecture and structure and this dependency and the impact on physics with choice of green and/or sustainable functional materials will be addressed as well. The book is broken up into three sections: Energy Storage; Energy Conversion; and Advanced Concepts. This book will be an important reference for researchers, engineers, and students who want to gain extensive knowledge in green and/or sustainable functional materials and their applications.
