A skin panel with an energy-storing layer for an aircraft or spacecraft comprises structural layers for providing structural stability to the skin panel, at least one of the structural layers forming an exterior supporting layer of the skin panel and at least one of the structural layers forming an interior supporting layer of the skin panel. Primary functional layers are embedded between the exterior supporting layer and the interior supporting layer for providing functional capabilities to the skin panel. The structural layers and the primary functional layers are formed together as a composite laminate and the functional layers comprise an energy-storing layer configured as a structural electro-chemical battery. The present disclosure further pertains to a method for manufacturing such an energy-storing layer for a skin panel of an aircraft or spacecraft.
