SUPER PULSE CAPACITOR (EDLC)

What is a Supercapacitor?

A supercapacitor, also known as an ultracapacitor or double-layer capacitor, is a high-capacity capacitor with a much higher capacitance value than other capacitors but with lower voltage limits. It fills the gap between electrolytic capacitors and rechargeable batteries. Supercapacitors store energy through a static charge, similar to the way an electric charge builds up when walking on a carpet. EVE's Lithium-Ion Super Pulse Capacitor (SPC) series batteries are an energy storage device with the latest and most advanced technologies. With the SPC, EVE provides a power solution for life cycle with high pulse current discharge and passivation sensitive application.

What are the Uses of Supercapacitors?

Consumer electronics: Supercapacitors are used in memory devices in laptops, cell phones and radio receivers where instantaneous bursts of power are required. Power supply and voltage stabilization: Supercapacitors can be used to stabilize voltage and provide backup power in case of power outages. Microgrid and renewable energy storage: Supercapacitors can be used to store energy generated from renewable sources such as solar and wind power, providing a reliable and efficient energy storage solution. Energy harvesting: The supercapacitor can be used to store energy generated from energy harvesting systems such as piezoelectric and thermoelectric systems. Regenerative braking: Supercapacitors are used for regenerative braking in automobiles where they can store the energy generated during braking and use it to power the vehicle during acceleration. Peak load boosters: Supercapacitor can be used as peak load boosters for hybrid vehicles and fuel cell applications, providing high current on acceleration and ultra-fast charging during regenerative braking Smart water meters: Supercapacitors can be used in smart water meters to ensure a reliable and long-lasting power supply. Backup power systems: Smaller supercapacitor units can be used as backup power systems for static random access memory (SRAM) and other devices In summary, super capacitors have diverse applications in a variety of fields, including consumer electronics, power supply and voltage stabilization, microgrid and renewable energy storage, energy harvesting, regenerative braking, peak load boosters, smart water meters and backup power systems. Super capacitors are particularly useful in situations requiring fast energy transfer and high power performance.
