Summary: Nowadays, there is significant research focus on advanced technologies for energy storage and conversion, and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted attention due to their structural diversity and tunable properties. Multimetallic MOFs, compared to mono-and bimetallic MOFs, have advantages in terms of enhanced electrochemical activity and electronic conductivity. The addition of other metals to MOF structures can improve their electrochemical behavior and electrical conductivity, and the ratios of metals can be adjusted to tune various physicochemical properties. This review discusses recent developments in heterotrimetallic MOFs and their derivatives as extraordinary materials for various energy applications, providing a roadmap for the introduction of heterotrimetallic MOFs as advanced materials for electrochemical energy storage and conversion.
