摘要：

Hydrogels hold significant potential to revolutionize the renewable energy sector due to their unique properties, tunable functionalities, and diverse applications. This study provides a critical evaluation of hydrogels in renewable energy, focusing on their fundamental properties and mechanisms relevant to energy technologies. bioenergy, uranium extraction, as well as mechanical, thermoelectric, and hygro-gradient energy harvesting, are explored in detail. The role of hydrogels in energy storage systems, such as supercapacitors and electrode materials, is analyzed, emphasizing advancements in energy density, cyclic stability, and performance enhancement techniques. The review also addresses the critical challenges of hydrogels, such as scalability, cost-effectiveness, mechanical stability, and environmental sustainability, which must be overcome for broader adoption in energy applications. Furthermore, the transformative potential of hydrogels in energy efficiency and conservation, in advanced energy-saving technologies was highlighted. This paper underscores hydrogels' role in renewable sions by decarbonizing the global energy sectors. The present study not only bridges existing research gaps but also provides valuable insights into the future of hydrogels as a cornerstone of sustainable energy ecosystems.
