The invention relates to a graphene aerogel loaded lithium iron phosphate porous composite material and a preparation method thereof. The technical scheme of the invention is as follows: the preparation method comprises the steps: adding a graphene oxide into deionized water, and carrying out stirring so as to obtain a solution I with the concentration of 2kg/m<3> to 5kg/m<3>; adding a ferric salt into the solution I in accordance with that the mass ratio of the ferric salt to the graphene oxide is 1: (0.03 to 0.3), and carrying out stirring so as to obtain a solution II; adding phosphate and a lithium salt into the solution II in accordance with that the mass ratio of the ferric salt to the phosphate to the lithium salt is 1: 1: 2, carrying out stirring, carrying out a hydrothermal reaction in a reactor, carrying out washing, carrying out freezing, and carrying out drying in a vacuum freeze drier; carrying out heat preservation for 4 to 10 hours in a tube type furnace in a protective atmosphere at the temperature of 550 DEG C to 850 DEG C, and carrying out furnace cooling, thereby preparing the graphene aerogel loaded lithium iron phosphate porous composite material. According to the graphene aerogel loaded lithium iron phosphate porous composite material and the preparation method thereof, the operation is convenient, industrial production is facilitated, the prepared product is adjustable in pore structure and particle size of lithium iron phosphate loaded on the surface of graphene, and the structural stability, cycle performance and high rate capability are excellent.
