MIT Researchers Create Concrete That Turns Roads Into Batteries For EV Charging

The material used to write the Dead Sea Scrolls, combined with the material used to make the Colosseum, could help turn your house's foundation into a battery

 

 

There are solid-state batteries, and then there are really solid state batteries. A group of researchers thinks it has come up with a supercapacitor so sturdy that it can act as the foundation of a house or can be driven over by EVs as it charges them.

Best of all, the technology combines materials that are globally abundant and combine easily: cement, water, and carbon black. Together, they turn concrete into a simple kind of battery called a superconductor.

As the world turns to renewable energy generation, the issue of energy storage becomes an increasing concern. Solar and wind power tend to only make power at certain times of day, which means that the power has to be stored in order to power homes at night.
