A composite blend of carbon fibers and polymer resin is being developed that can store and charge more energy faster than conventional batteries can. The material combines carbon fibers and a polymer resin, creating a very advanced nanomaterial, and structural supercapacitors. Close up of the trunk lid carbon fiber composite.

The hybrid tug used in the study, the Carolyn Dorothy ( earlier post ), is powered by two 1,342 kW Cummins QSK50-M main engines and 317 kW Cummins QSM11-M auxiliary generators. It also has 126 soft gel lead acid batteries for power storage that are separated into two arrays with 63 batteries each. Each array stores 170.1
