Graphene-based 2D nanomaterials are gaining much interest in energy storage systems, specifically in ultracapacitors. Various electrolytes increase the performance of ultracapacitor (UC), Li-Ion capacitor (LIC), and Li-Ion battery (LIB). In the present work, we have successfully designed a "three-in-one" artificial method to engineer anode from a single precursor for high-performance UC, LIC, and LIB. In the present investigation, graphene oxide (GO) slurry was developed using the modified Hummers’ method. The effect of KOH, H2SO4, and KCl electrolytes on electrochemical performance of UC was demonstrated. The LiPF6 organic electrolyte solution on electrochemical performance of LIC and LIB is demonstrated. The GO deposited on stainless steel electrode achieved its highest specific capacitance of 422 F/g, energy density of 45.50 kWh/kg, and power density of 10,000 W/kg in 3.0 M in KCl, whereas GO as an anode material delivered a first discharge capacity of 456 mAh/g at 0.05 A/g current density with the efficiency of 100%.
