5 · 3. Thermal energy storage. Thermal energy storage is used particularly in buildings and industrial processes. It involves storing excess energy – typically surplus energy from renewable sources, or waste heat – to be used later for heating, cooling or power generation. Liquids – such as water – or solid material - such as sand or rocks ...
An essential characteristic of an electrode material, particularly important in energy production and storage, is surface area. The theoretical surface area of graphene is reported to be ∼2630 m 2 g −1, surpassing that of both SWCNTs and graphite which are reported to be ∼1315 m 2 g −1 and ∼10 m 2 g −1 respectively [10] .
