[FAQS about Energy storage equipment for power systems]
Supercapacitors are a type of energy storage device that is superior to both batteries and regular capacitors123. They have a greater capacity for energy storage than traditional capacitors and can deliver it at a higher power output in contrast to batteries1. Supercapacitors can tolerate significantly more rapid charge and discharge cycles than rechargeable batteries can3. MIT engineers have created a “supercapacitor” made of ancient, abundant materials, that can store large amounts of energy4. [pdf]
