ABSTRACT The shift toward sustainable energy has increased the demand for efficient storage systems to complement renewable sources like solar and wind. While lithium‐ion batteries dominate market, challenges such as safety concerns limited density drive search new solutions. Liquid metals (LMs) have emerged promising materials advanced due their unique properties, including low melting points, high electrical conductivity, tunable surface tension, strong alloying tendency. Enabled by properties of LMs, four key scientific functions LMs in are highlighted: active materials, self‐healing, interface stabilization, conductivity enhancement. These applications can improve battery performance, safety, lifespan. This review also discusses current future opportunities using next‐generation systems. image
