Worth noting that Nuke subs have batteries but Carriers do not use batteries for auxiliary power. They have 2 independent plants (Enterprise had more, but that's decommissioned now), and use diesel generators as a backup. That's not to say there's no batteries on a carrier, but not like a ship-wide battery system. But obviously that has nothing to do with "how heavy" batteries are, so I guess this is all beside the point.
