Relaxor ferroelectrics usually possess low remnant polarizations and slim hystereses, which can provide high saturated polarizations and superior energy conversion efficiencies, thus receiving increasing interest as energy storage materials with high discharge energy densities and fast discharge ability. In this study, a relaxor ferroelectric multilayer energy storage ceramic capacitor (MLESCC) based on 0.87BaTiO3‐0.13Bi(Zn2/3(Nb0.85Ta0.15)1/3)O3 (BT‐BZNT) with inexpensive Ag/Pd inner electrodes is prepared by the tape casting method. The MLESCC with two dielectric layers (layer thicknesses of 5 µm) sintered by a two‐step sintering method exhibits excellent energy storage properties with a record‐high discharge energy density of 10.12 J cm−3, a high energy efficiency of 89.4% achieved at an electric field of 104.7 MV m−1, a high temperature stability of the energy storage density (with minimal variation of <±5%), and energy efficiency (>90%) over a range of −75 to 150 °C at 40 MV m−1. These results suggest that the BT‐BZNT relaxor ferroelectric ceramic material can provide realistic solutions for high‐power energy storage capacitors.
