Abstract

An electrochemical charge storage device (60) having two asymmetric inorganic electrodes (30, 36) is provided. The device may be fabricated using a bipolar plate which acts as both the conductor, and as the substrate upon which the active electrodes are formed. The bipolar plate may further be adapted to act as one of the active electrodes by activating a portion of the bipolar plate material.
