New Material Can Store Vast Amounts of Energy

ElectricSteve writes "Using super-high pressures similar to those found deep in the Earth or on a giant planet, researchers from Washington State University (WSU) have created a compact, never-before-seen material capable of storing vast amounts of energy. Described by one of the researchers as 'the most condensed form of energy storage outside of nuclear energy,' the material holds potential for creating a new class of energetic materials or fuels, an energy storage device, super-oxidizing materials for destroying chemical and biological agents, and high temperature superconductors."

Energon Cubes?

Will this attract the Transformers?

Store energy from lightning..

[b4nd0ler0]

see if they manage that, shed-loads of power but storing it has always been a major problem

Energon Cubes?

Megatron will be pleased.
