Highlights Representative methods for calculating the depth of discharge of different Zn anodes are introduced. Recent advances of aqueous Zn metal batteries with high Zn utilization are reviewed and categorized according to Zn anodes with different structures. The working mechanism of anode-free aqueous Zn metal batteries is introduced in detail, and different modification strategies for anode-free aqueous Zn metal batteries are summarized.
