Bio-based and biodegradable nanocomposites represent a new generation of materials that combine ecological compatibility with superior mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties. This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of bio-based polymer matrices (such as PLA, PHA, PBS, PEF, PVA, and natural polymers like cellulose, chitosan, and lignin) and their integration with nanofillers, including graphene, carbon nanotubes, TiO2, ZnO, and nanoclay. The synergistic effects of these hybrid structures are discussed in the context of clean energy technologies, such as solar cells, fuel cells, batteries, supercapacitors, and piezoelectric nanogenerators. In addition, the chapter highlights green synthesis routes, characterization methods, life cycle assessment (LCA), and industrial perspectives, emphasizing how nanocomposite design bridges performance enhancement with environmental sustainability.IGI Global2026Book Chapterhttps://rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/r/gumushane/13660https://doi.org/10.4018/979-8-3373-6048-5.ch002979-833736050-8979-833736048-5enInnovations in Eco-Friendly Materials and Sustainable Energyinfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessinfo:eu-repo/semantics/bookParthttps://gumushane-rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/tr/items/gumushane/13660
