For capacitors, voltage translates to electrons stored —the voltage drop across a capacitor is proportional to its total charge.) A team including researchers from Japan’s Tohoku University recently developed a durable, efficient energy harvester that combines piezoelectric composites with carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP).

The inner layer consists of gas-impermeable polyamide polymer, while a second layer of carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) gives the tank its extremely high strength; a third layer of glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) provides rugged protection against damage from the outside.

A high-efficiency heat pump absorbs the waste heat from the electrical components and a thermoelectric auxiliary heating element maintain pleasant temperatures inside the car. When the car is braked it stores the recovered energy. At a pressure of 700 bar, they store enough hydrogen for a range of up to 600 kilometers (372.8

This makes it possible for the waste heat from the electrical drive components to be made available to the interior of the Q7 e-tron quattro. Their outer skin is made from aluminum-coated polymer and this in turn brings weight advantages. Because the exhaust system transports only water, it can be made of lightweight polymer.
