Electric-powered transport is in increasing demand, but as with all electrical devices battery life is still a serious issue.

If this battery (sorry, capacitor) is light enough, soldiers can carry it in their backpacks as a single source for all their electrical power needs. It can also power a lightweight exoskeleton. And maybe some future electromagnetic weapon.
