'Massless' energy storage in vehicles (IMAGE)
Caption
Structural battery composites cannot store as much energy as lithium-ion batteries, but have several characteristics that make them highly attractive for use in vehicles and other applications. When the battery becomes part of the load bearing structure, the mass of the battery essentially 'disappears'.
