Abstract

Abstract Aqueous zinc‐ion batteries (AZIBs) have garnered significant attention as promising alternatives to lithium‐ion batteries, offering advantages such as high safety, cost‐effectiveness, and environmental friendliness. Despite their potential, achieving high energy density (ED) remains a key challenge for AZIBs to compete with state‐of‐the‐art energy storage technologies. This review explores the fundamental principles, challenges, and recent advances in AZIBs with a focus on enhancing ED. Key developments in cathode materials, including high‐voltage and high‐capacity designs, are discussed alongside innovations in zinc anode engineering to suppress dendrite formation and improve utilization rates.…
