Milczarek and Inganäs describe how a class of organic compounds known as quinones allows the lignin derivatives to shed a proton and store this electric charge in its place. The polypyrrole is able to hold on to the loose proton until the charge is released and the proton returns to the quinone group of the lignin derivative.

The three leading new options to re-supply our autos with energy are charging at home, battery swap stations and fast charge stations. The method that should seem most natural is charging at home. If cost is an important consideration, than charging your EV at home is a no-brainer as it cuts out any profit-hungry middlemen.
