Abstract
The pervasive impact of power generation on electronic battlefield technologies and the critical need for compact, highly efficient power sources are discussed. Areas that require new and innovative solutions are prime power, batteries, capacitors, switches, and pulser integration. It is concluded that orders of magnitude improvements are needed; technical barriers exist that require invention; power technology needs to be given a high priority in the tech base strategy; and resources must be rejuvenated and expanded to accomplish the required objectives
