Mac air is slow and not charging

Hello, I have a problem with my MacBook. I have purchased it back in 2020 and barely used it, probably charged 2-3 times max. Then we stored it since then and recently I decided to use it again but it is terribly slow. It takes a huge time to just log in and battery is stuck at 1% and says not charging. I tried to keep it plugged in overnight but it did nothing. Could you please give me any suggestions how can I fix it?

I ran the diagnostics and it says “The battery requires service” and “There may be an issue with the System Management Controller (SMC).
