In one of the papers related to the work, a team from Imperial College London (the academic lead on the project), noted: To date, two main strategies have been applied to the fabrication of multifunctional structural energy storage devices. This is not only cost-effective but would also have improvements to the impact on the environment.

To put things into perspective, this means you could easily go from Brussels to Paris (316 km) or from London to Liverpool (350 km) without any stops for charging. There has also been some skepticism over whether electric vehicles are really better for the environment. Is our grid ready for a full transition to EVs?

Most automotive manufacturers say they plan to use renewable energy in the future, but for now, most battery production relies on electric grids largely powered by fossil fuels. That’s why operating EVs typically releases less carbon than operating gasoline vehicles of similar size, even in coal-heavy grids like Shandong or West Virginia.
