All-Carbon Fibre Structural Battery Composites
Journal article, 2025

Structural batteries refer to multifunctional composite materials capable of storing and delivering electrical energy while carrying mechanical loads. One of the most promising structural battery concepts demonstrated to date utilises carbon fibres in both electrodes, providing combined high electrochemical capacity, electric conductivity and elastic modulus and strength. This paper reports on the state-of-the-art for all-carbon fibre based structural batteries.
