This tech has nothing short of enormous potential; environmentally and for cars, spacecraft and electronic devices.

These work like a combination of battery and supercapacitor; fast charging while still capable of delivering sustained output. Now charging an electric cars battery takes hours, but with this it could be down to minutes; basically the time it takes to gas up.

That you could incorporate the battery into the vehicles body structure is sauce for the goose.

Brilliant! Some numbers would be good...
