In this review, a wide variety of fluorine-doped/fluorinated carbon-based materials are put together to overview the development path, preparation route and areas of application in detail.
While fluorides have been recently introduced in energy conversion applications such as electrolytes for fuel cells, transparent electrodes for solar cells, and electrodes for aqueous batteries, the application of fluorine based materials has manifested itself to a great extent in high energy lithium nonaqueous batteries.
Fluorine based materials have been gradually entering a prominent place in energy storage and conversion, resulting in materials of great performance and stability.

Researchers in China lead the world in publishing widely cited papers in 52 of 64 critical technologies, recent calculations by the Australian Strategic Policy Institute reveal. China's advances in battery research have helped it gain a dominant position in electric vehicles. Gilles Sabrié for The New York Times
Regarding knowledge development and exchange (F2 and F3), Chinese battery enterprises have increased their R&D expenditure, leading to several technological breakthroughs as well as increasing domesticalization of the key technologies in the four core battery components (anodes, cathodes, electrolytes, and separators) (Gov.cn, 2020).
And because of the protection, as well as the efforts to domesticalise the battery value chain, the huge Chinese market was effectively restricted to domestic firms, and hence they could invest more in R&D and technology development and capture more added value (F2, F3).
Empirically, we study the new energy vehicle battery (NEVB) industry in China since the early 2000s. In the case of China's NEVB industry, an increasingly strong and complicated coevolutionary relationship between the focal TIS and relevant policies at different levels of abstraction can be observed.
Even the progress is sluggish, under the incentives of national governments, researches on the design of advanced materials, the fabrication of new electrodes, the optimization of battery engineering etc. have never been ceasing, trying to push the boundaries of energy density, power density, cycle life, cost and safety.
Due to the very generous subsidy scheme, many of the Chinese car and battery manufacturers increasingly shifted their focus to meeting the subsidy criteria required by the policy, instead of concentrating on product and process innovations that would guarantee their market success in the long run (Intermediary 3, Expert 4).

Energy storage is not a new technology. The earliest gravity-based pumped storage system was developed in Switzerland in 1907 and has since been widely applied globally. However, from an industry perspective, energy storage is still in its early stages of development.
There are still many challenges in the application of energy storage technology, which have been mentioned above. In this part, the challenges are classified into four main points. First, battery energy storage system as a complete electrical equipment product is not mature and not standardised yet.
Additionally, with the large-scale development of electrochemical energy storage, all economies should prioritize the development of technologies such as recycling of end-of-life batteries, similar to Europe. Improper handling of almost all types of batteries can pose threats to the environment and public health .

Sodium-Ion Solid State Batteries: While these batteries use sodium ions instead of lithium, they still often integrate lithium components for improved performance and efficiency. All-Solid Lithium Batteries: These batteries solely incorporate lithium metal anodes and solid electrolytes, maximizing energy density and longevity.
Solid state batteries often contain lithium, which plays a key role in their functionality. Understanding the types of solid state batteries and how they compare to traditional lithium-ion batteries helps clarify lithium's significance. Lithium-Conducting Solid State Batteries: These batteries utilize lithium ions as charge carriers.
Solid state batteries offer the potential for significantly higher energy densities compared to traditional lithium-ion batteries. This is largely due to the use of lithium metal anodes, which have a much higher charge capacity than the graphite anodes used in lithium-ion batteries.
