Supercapacitors have made significant strides in electrochemical performance improvements, yet integrating them into structures capable of withstanding mechanical loads has proven to be a challenge. Now, a supercapacitor based on a high-strength solid electrolyte is shown to have a high load-bearing capacity with negligible capacity loss during long-term cycling.
