Currently, carbon fiber (CF) reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites are used to make COPVs. That high cost is a barrier for widespread commercial deployment of light-duty FCEVs. A primary cost driver of the composite materials and processing is the synthesis and conversion of precursor polymer into CF.

Conversely, high coating thicknesses for the electrodes produce a high energy density. Under a venture with the motto “From Road to Grid”, Audi is therefore currently working on a concept to convert old batteries into stationary energy stores. The plate has an integrated primary coil and an inverter (AC/AC converter).
