Development of Textiles for Electrical Energy Generation and Storage (Powerweave)

Start date: Jun 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2015,

This project will develop a fabric to harvest and store electrical energy within its fibrous matrix, to fulfill a need for an easily deformable, storable and transportable power supply.This will be achieved through the development of PV fibres and energy storage fibres integrated with control electronics into a textile. This unique approach, moving on from the current state of the art using rigid ...
