    Abstract: According to the invention there is provided a component including a supercapacitor and a method of producing same. The component comprises a first (12) and second (14) electrode and a separator structure (16) which separates the two electrodes and contains a liquid or gel electrolyte. The first and second electrode structures are each formed from a composite material (10) which includes electrically conductive fibres and electrochemically active material in a binder matrix and the supercapacitor is formed to be structurally inseparable from the rest of the component. Further, the component forms a structural capacitor. The obtained structural capacitor could be used in aircraft structure to save weight.

    Abstract: Standby structural composite electrical energy storage devices, and a method of producing such devices, are disclosed. The device, which may be a standby battery or supercapacitor, comprises first and second electrode structures 2, 3 which are separated by a separator structure 6, wherein the structures are encapsulated in a binder matrix to form a composite, and the device comprises at least one void between the first and second electrode structures in which electrolyte can be provided. The device contains an electrolyte retained in a separate reservoir 10 with at least one valve 8, 9 allowing the addition of electrolyte fluids to the void(s). The valves 8, 9 may also be used in the removal of electrolyte and venting of any outgassing by-products. The reservoir 10 may be distinct from the device (as shown) or may be formed as an additional layer (21, figure 2) within the structure. The devices may be used as structural panels within vehicles such as land, air, space or waterborne vehicles.
