Electrode materials play a vital role in electrochemical energy storage devices and many efforts have been devoted to exploring optimized high-performance electrode materials.
Three-dimensional electrodes offer great advantages, such as enhanced ion and electron transport, increased material loading per unit substrate area, and improved mechanical stability upon repeated charge-discharge. The origin of these advantages is discussed and the criteria for ideal 3D electrode structure are outlined.
Three-dimensional ordered porous materials can improve the electrochemical storage of energy. Jing Wang and Yuping Wu from Nanjing Tech University, China and co-workers review the development of these materials for use as electrodes in devices such as batteries and supercapacitors.
One of the common features of ideal 3D electrodes is the use of a 3D carbon- or metal-based porous framework as the structural backbone and current collector. The synthesis methods of these 3D frameworks and their composites with redox-active materials are summarized, including transition metal oxides and conducting polymers.
Jing Wang and Yuping Wu from Nanjing Tech University, China and co-workers review the development of these materials for use as electrodes in devices such as batteries and supercapacitors. Three-dimensional ordered porous materials are created by inserting the desired raw material into a template made from an array of spheres.
To realize the full potential of these electrode materials, new electrode architectures are required that can allow more efficient charge transport beyond the limits of traditional electrodes. In this Review, we summarize the design and synthesis of 3D electrodes to address charge transport limitations in thick electrodes.

[PDF Version]In March 2025, the Commission launched the European Energy Storage Inventory, a real-time dashboard that displays energy storage levels across different European countries. It is the first European-level tool of its kind and offers energy storage data across a full range of technologies.
It can also facilitate the electrification of different economic sectors, notably buildings and transport. The main energy storage method in the EU is by far 'pumped hydro' storage, but battery storage projects are rising. A variety of new technologies to store energy are also rapidly developing and becoming increasingly market-competitive.
It addresses the most important issues contributing to the broader deployment of energy storage. EU countries should consider the double 'consumer-producer' role of storage by applying the EU electricity regulatory framework and by removing barriers, including avoiding double taxation and facilitating smooth permitting procedures.
Besides being an important flexibility solution, energy storage can reduce price fluctuations, lower electricity prices during peak times and empower consumers to adapt their energy consumption to prices and their needs. It can also facilitate the electrification of different economic sectors, notably buildings and transport.

Zandi et al. (2017) proposed four scenarios to use solar PV systems in residential sectors of Iran. All the scenarios were studied using RETScreen software. In addition, the economic aspects and environmental impacts of the scenarios were examined.
Iran's potentials for solar-based electricity generation At present, Iran is producing only 0.46% of its energy from renewable energy sources. In 2016, the country's renewable-based electricity generation sector was mainly comprised of 53.88 MW wind, 13.56 MW biomass, 0.51 MW solar and 0.44 MW hydropower .
Particularly, Iran enjoys a high potential for solar radiation up to 5.5 kWh/m 2 /day where implementation of solar power plants is completely feasible and affordable, . Due to great access to solar energy, several studies have evaluated the potential of generating electricity from this abundant and clean source of energy.
Fundraising remains a challenge: One significant challenge in the country is the financing of solar projects. The local banks of Iran are not completely ready to provide financial support for renewable energy projects and only give loans with very high interest rates (around 20%).
The annual average air temperatures of all the provinces of Iran is higher than 25 °C. Therefore, the PV modules performance will dramatically reduce due to high ambient temperatures.
The other reason is that under the “Paris Agreement” terms, Iran obliged to reduce its GHG emissions by at least 4% and at most 12% by 2030. Among RE resources, Iran has the remarkable potential for solar energy with the average annual rate of 4.5–5.5 kWh/m 2.
