A groundbreaking development in massless energy storage has been achieved by a research group at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden. Their innovative structural battery has the potential to reduce the weight of laptops by half, make mobile phones as thin as credit cards, and boost the driving range of electric cars by up to 70% on a single charge.

New research from the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) finds that making average electric vehicles as efficient as their higher-performing peers can reduce the upfront cost of an EV by almost $5,000 and cut charging costs by nearly a third. Improving the efficiency of a 300-mile-range EV can give it the same range with much smaller batteries, significantly cutting costs.
