Technical FAQs 4

What is a supercapacitor?

Also known as an ultracapacitor or Electrical Double-Layer Capacitor (EDLC), supercapacitors possess a very high capacitance value compared to other regular capacitors. These high-capacitance capacitors have low voltage limits.

What are the applications of supercapacitors in energy storage?

In conclusion, the applications of supercapacitors in energy storage are diverse and impactful. As technology advances, it's clear that the unique features of supercapacitors—their ability to rapidly charge and discharge and provide substantial power density—are irreplaceable in modern energy systems.

Are supercapacitors a battery?

That is why, despite battery-like construction, supercapacitors are classified as capacitors and not batteries. Compared to batteries, supercapacitors can go through several thousands of charge-discharge cycles. Therefore, they can serve as an excellent source of charge or power backup in battery-operated circuits.

What is the maximum capacitance a supercapacitor can provide?

The maximum capacitance that these capacitors can provide is 1 Farad. If the higher capacitance is required, the capacitors will need to be quite large, which may or may not fit into typical electronic circuits. Enter the supercapacitor.
