Abstract

This chapter aims at providing an understanding about the potential applications of various types of coatings in energy sector. As the energy demands are growing day by day, there is need of enhancing the efficiency of energy systems, which can be enhanced using the advanced coatings. This chapter summarizes about the application of thin films and thick coatings of conventional/nanomaterials in both renewable and non-renewable energy sectors. A comparison between the efficiencies of systems with and without coatings has also been addressed. The importance and challenges associated with adding nanomaterials like carbon nanotubes (CNT), graphene, and various nanostructures with conventional coating material have also been discussed. This chapter can lead to better fundamental understanding about the coatings, which ensures new designs, high efficiency, and large application of coatings in energy sector.
