Abstract: Flexible electrochemical energy storage is the key technology supporting the development of flexible electronics (like wearable smart electronic devices) and is regarded as the important R&D direction for future electrochemistry. This article reviewes the state of art of the flexible electrochemical energy storage devices, and introduced the key components and current technology by specifying issues in terms of flexible electrode materials (CNT, graphene, carbon cloth/fiber, textiles), electrolytes(liquid, solid, inorganic/organic composite), fabrication techniques(printing, coating and spraying, deposition and weaving) and novel flexible electrochemical energy storage devices with more additional functional versatilities. Generally speaking, flexible electrochemical energy storage technologies are still in the initial stage. The fundamental prerequisite for its future development is maintaining its mechanical performance and service life under corresponding application circumstances (like bending and twisting).The future R&D emphasis will be mainly focused on elevating its performance including gravimetric/volumetric energy density and power density, service life, stability and development of novel energy storage devices with more functionalities and technologies suitable for scale-up mass production. Since flexible electrochemical energy storage technology combines both structural and functional advantages, it can be foreseen that it will draw constant attention for a long time in future and more R&D progress will be expected.
