Skeleton says that the electrical conductivity of its curved graphene is almost seven times better than that of regular activated carbons. This is also an advantage because cooling systems can be downsized or removed altogether. Naturally, the automotive market is the next step in our company road map.

A key part of the overall efficiency gain is the downsized 11-liter Volvo engine, featuring advanced fuel injection, cooling, oil and turbo-charging systems, as well as new “wave” pistons and other improvements. This new design added “wave” bumps on the side of the piston bowl, which allows the fuel to burn more cleanly.).
