If carbon black cement was used to make a 45-cubic-meter volume of concrete—roughly the amount used in the foundation of a standard home— it could store 10 kilowatt-hours of energy, enough to power an average household for a day, the team reports today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
These properties point to the opportunity for employing these structural concrete-like supercapacitors for bulk energy storage in both residential and industrial applications ranging from energy autarkic shelters and self-charging roads for electric vehicles, to intermittent energy storage for wind turbines.
Herein, we argue that carbon-doped cement composites naturally combine these three attributes by leveraging the synergy between the hydration of hydrophilic cement in the presence of hydrophobic carbon black. This synergy makes our materials good candidates for bulk energy storage for residential and industrial applications.
This innocuous, dark lump of concrete could represent the future of energy storage. The promise of most renewable energy sources is that of endless clean power, bestowed on us by the Sun, wind and sea. Yet the Sun isn't always shining, the wind isn't always blowing, and still waters do not, in megawatt terms, run deep.
