Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted great interest because of their unique porous structures, synthetic advantages, organic-inorganic hybrid nature, and versatile applications. Recently, the applications of MOFs in energy fields such as fuel storage, photo-induced hydrogen evolution, fuel cells, batteries, and supercapacitors have experienced a new surge of interest in both the chemistry and materials science communities. Research on the various applications of MOFs has shown that they are promising porous materials for energy storage and conversion technologies. Furthermore, MOFs have been used as support substrates to accommodate metals, metal oxides, semiconductors, and complexes and have been used as sacrificial materials for the generation of various nanostructures for energy applications. Here, we present the highlights of renewable energy applications based on MOFs and their composites and derivatives
