MIT researchers have developed a new type of concrete that can store electricity, potentially turning buildings into energy storage units. The material, called electron-conducting carbon concrete, or EC3, could help integrate renewable energy sources more effectively. The innovative concrete combines carbon fibers with a standard cement mix, creating a structure that can conduct and store electricity. Unlike traditional concrete, which is only a building material, EC3 can act like a large-scale battery. This advancement could allow skyscrapers, bridges, and other concrete structures to store energy generated from solar panels or wind turbines. EC3 can charge and release energy, similar to…
