A composite blend of carbon fibers and polymer resin is being developed that can store and charge more energy faster than conventional batteries can. This material can then be used around the vehicle, replacing existing components, to store and charge energy. Click to enlarge. Close up of the trunk lid carbon fiber composite.

Now, for the first time ever, we have a chance to test a hydrogen-powered Solaris bus. The longer the distances to be covered and the heavier the vehicle itself, the more important this type of driveline is becoming, also in terms of resources needed to refuel.

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. Materials for charge storage are desired from easily accessible and renewable sources. Their research appears in the 23 March issue of the journal Science.
