Application prospects and novel structures of SCESDs proposed. Structural composite energy storage devices (SCESDs) which enable both structural mechanical load bearing (sufficient stiffness and strength) and electrochemical energy storage (adequate capacity) have been developing rapidly in the past two decades.
Structural composite energy storage devices (SCESDs), that are able to simultaneously provide high mechanical stiffness/strength and enough energy storage capacity, are attractive for many structural and energy requirements of not only electric vehicles but also building materials and beyond .
