Abstract
Quantum Computing technology is currently prevailing as a promising candidate for expanding the research horizons in the areas of power engineering and transportation. An across-the-board view of this technology identifies that the intersecting research of interest which covers both areas is the identification of innovative energy storage technologies. Quantum Computers (QC) provide the capability to develop an innovative energy storage system, but its operating principles encompass the domains of Quantum Physics (QP) and Quantum Mechanics (QM) and thus limit the understanding of its underlying functionality. The applicable storage system under research using QC, termed Quantum Battery (QB) is considered to be a theoretical construct, which means that it is not directly observable. This paper attempts to piece together the QM and its applications in a QC, directed towards the identification of an innovative QB, by providing a review of the existing researches. Also, the explanations of various postulates and their corresponding formulations leading to the QM framework behind a QB is presented. This is followed by a review of the underlying operation of a QC and its application in performing battery research. A summary of the existing QB researches is also presented which are categorized into particle- and chemistry-driven (quantum) battery researches.
