From page 16...
... Research directed toward the tailored materials required for high-efficiency, high-capacity energy storage and conversion devices and storage capacitors is covered well in the existing and continuing electrochemical sciences programs. This research is directed toward naval applications such as dielectric missiles and electrochemical rail guns.

From page 17...
... Particular attention should be paid to the process of achieving a transition from the fundamental understanding of processes, factors limiting performance, new materials, and energy storage and conversion devices evolving from the research laboratory to the development of systems that satisfy Navy requirements. Systems engineering activities would benefit from the development of a database on energy storage and conversion devices, performance characteristics and limitations, economic and environmental factors, and other parameters.
