“…The ionic energy carriers can be served by materials other than hydrogen too—for instance, carbon and oxides of different components. Theoretically, any materials have the ability of chemical oxidation that can constantly be supplied (as a fluid) can be used as fuel at anode section of a fuel cell . In the regular combustion process, all the produced energy release as heat.…”

“…The applied electrolyte in these types of fuel cells contains 35%–50% KOH with the more affordable catalyst. The main disadvantage of alkaline fuel cells is that surrounding CO 2 can deteriorate their performance . The advantages of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), also known as polymer electrolyte fuel cell or ion exchange membrane, include delivering higher power in more compact sizes compared with other fuel cells that work in the temperature range of 50°C and 80°C with efficiencies from 50% to 60%.…”

“…Theoretically, any materials have the ability of chemical oxidation that can constantly be supplied (as a fluid) can be used as fuel at anode section of a fuel cell. 88 In the regular combustion process, all the produced energy release as heat. However, part of the released energy of this electrochemical reaction is electricity; the rest of energy is heat-apparently, this process is more efficient for electrical devices and automobiles.…”

Summary It is believed that fossil fuel sources are exhaustible and also the major cause of greenhouse gas emission. Therefore, it is required to increase the portion of renewable energy sources in supplying the primary energy of the world. In this study, it is focused on application of nanotechnology in exploitation of renewable energy sources and the related technologies such as hydrogen production, solar cell, geothermal, and biofuel. Here, nanotechnologies influence on providing an alternative energy sources, which are environmentally benign, are comprehensively discussed and reviewed. Based on the literature, employing nanotechnology enhances the heat transfer rate in photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) systems and modifies PV structures, which can improve its performance, making fuel cells much cost‐effective and improving the performance of biofuel industry through utilization of nanocatalysts, manufacturing materials with high durability and lower weight for wind energy industry.

“…Materials other than hydrogen can serve as ionic energy carriers too—for example, carbon (as a carbonate ion) and oxides of various elements. In theory, any substance capable of chemical oxidation that can be supplied continuously (as a fluid) can be burned as the fuel at the anode of a fuel cell . In normal combustion, all the energy generated is released as heat.…”

It is well known that current fossil fuel usage is unsustainable and associated with greenhouse gas production. The amount of the world's primary energy supply provided by renewable energy technologies is urgently required. Therefore, the relevant technologies such as hydrogen fuel, solar cell, biotechnology based on nanotechnology, and the relevant patents for exploiting the future energy for the friendly environment are reviewed. At the same time, it is pointed out that the significantly feasible world's eco-energy for the foreseeable future should not only be realized, but also methods for using the current energy and their by-products more efficiently should be found correspondingly, alongside technologies that will ensure minimal environmental impact.
