Abstract Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have received widespread attention for their advantages of good electrical conductivity, stability, environmental friendliness, and easy preparation with a wide range of applications. However, it was not until recent years that DESs were used as gel electrolytes as environmentally friendly alternatives to ionic liquids (ILs). In this mini review, we first introduce the DESs related eutectogels (or ion gels), then introduce the types and applications of the gels, the opportunities and challenges of them are also summarized.
