Researchers at Penn State University have developed a new thin glass that could be the next great energy storage technology and make hybrid and electric vehicles more affordable and reliable and be ideal for renewable energy storage. Penn State says, "Thin and flexible glass for displays is already a widely commercialized technology. But even thinner glass, about one tenth the thickness of display glass, can be customized to store energy at high temperatures and for high power applications, such as electric vehicle power electronics, wind turbine generators, grid-tied photovoltaics, aerospace, and geothermal exploration and drilling." treehugger/clean-technology/thin-flexible-glass-could.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+treehuggersite+%28Treehugger%29
