Recently, petroleum-based polymers have been responsible for a large amount of the trash that has collected on our planet, with significant negative environmental impacts and high reprocessing costs. Advances in new energies—such as wind, biomass, and solar—are essential to ensuring sustainable development. Thus, the objective of this chapter is to consider the contribution of renewable materials to the main types of energy. Petroleum-based polymer wastes are expected to at least triple by the year 2050. The production of nanocomposite elements from biorenewable materials is the most significant way to meet these challenges and overcome the energy shortages. Polymers of natural origin offer significant advantages, including biocompatibility, low cost, benefits to the ecosystem, renewability, low toxicity, and efficient biodegradability. Further, it is these characteristics that allow biorenewable nanocomposites to be easily be used for energy storage. This chapter highlights the importance of biorenewable nanocomposites formed from biomaterials—cellulose, lignin, natural rubber, chitin, protein, starch, and vegetable oils—in energy storage applications and their capacitance for ion storage. Sensors, batteries, actuators, and supercapacitors made up of biorenewable materials can meet the quality expectations with little or no negative impact on nature and meet the energy demands of the world’s rapidly growing population. Nanocomposites made from biorenewable materials play an important part in today’s society and will continue to do so in the future to create efficient, innovative materials for energy storage applications to ensure a sustainable energy future. In the future, more advanced batteries, supercapacitors, and storage devices (e.g., thermal energy storage, pumped hydro storage, compressed air energy storage devices) will be produced from biorenewable nanocomposites to fulfil the future demands of energy in an eco-friendly manner.
