Sonika
Abstract
In order to address the world’s energy challenges, transitioning to renewable energy is essential, and sustainable materials will have a significant impact on how this change develops. Materials science has evolved over time to develop effective, durable, and eco-friendly materials that enable the production, advancement, and storage of energy. The goal of reducing reliance on fossil fuels, minimizing environmental damage, and increasing the efficiency of clean energy sources has historically driven the search for sustainable materials. Novel possibilities for improving energy efficiency and device longevity have been made possible by advancements in nanomaterials, perovskites, biodegradable polymers, and bio-based composites. This study explores the background and development of sustainable materials, emphasizing their significance in advancing renewable energy technologies such as solar cells, wind turbines, energy storage systems, and flexible electronics. By analyzing the historical context, current trends, and future prospects, this study aims to provide insights into the role of sustainable materials in shaping the future of renewable energy solutions.
