Research on sustainable energy is assisted by a variety of structural and functional materials that have advanced during the past ten years. Functional materials are very effective in the physical processes, whereas structural materials provide the functionality of load support. With the innovative development in the material's electrical, magnetic, optical, or chemical capabilities, multifunctional structures and gadgets are used in a wide variety of applications. Graphene (2D material) to create nanocomposite materials is mostly used functional material, to improve the conductivity and reproducibility of the cathode material. Structural materials are having their limitations hence dense anode materials are used to avoiding such issues like converting, alloy and dealloying process. Ionic liquids for electrochemical energy storages are still under research, although the Lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) are providing a considerable level of power storage and power potential. This chapter examines the role and technology of nanomaterials from its inception to prospective developments in the future for sustainable energy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
