Price of home supercapacitor equipment

How much does a supercapacitor cost?

The capex costs of supercapacitors are contrasted with the costs of lithium ion batteries and the costs of flywheels in the chart below. A typical supercapacitor stores about 15 seconds of energy, for a capex cost of $10,000/kWh, but just $40/kW of power.

How much energy does a supercapacitor store?

A typical supercapacitor stores about 15 seconds of energy, for a capex cost of $10,000/kWh, but just $40/kW of power. This is down to very high power density (10-25 kW/kg, 10-25x higher than a lithium ion battery), albeit quite low energy density (2-10 Wh/kg, which is 95-99% below a lithium ion battery).

How to choose a supercapacitor?

The selection of materials for supercapacitors is one of the essential criteria that determine its performance. To increase the charge storage capacity and improve the energy density of supercapacitors, careful consideration of materials is crucial.

What is the highest value supercapacitor?

Highest value supercapacitor has been made by Ningbo CSR Technologies, China. It is30,000 Farads 2..8 V, and are intended for their buses, which will run 10 km with 1 minute charge. In terms of short term power with high energy , it is the capacitor bank installed at Dresden Laboratory.
