A structural battery could make mobile phone as thin as a credit card

World’s strongest battery paves way for light, energy-efficient vehicles

A research group at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden is now presenting a world-leading advance in so-called massless energy storage – a structural battery that could halve the weight of a laptop, make the mobile phone as thin as a credit card or increase the driving range of an electric car by up to 70 percent on a single charge.
