Liechtenstein Energy Storage Supercapacitor Company

Are supercapacitors better than batteries?

Unlike batteries, which store energy chemically, supercapacitors store energy electrostatically. This enables rapid charging, making them ideal for applications demanding quick energy replenishment. However, their energy density is typically lower than that of batteries, limiting their use for long-term energy storage.

What is a supercapacitor & how does it work?

Supercapacitors A supercapacitor, also known as an ultracapacitor or electric double-layer capacitor (EDLC), is an energy storage device that bridges the gap between conventional capacitors and batteries. Unlike batteries, which store energy chemically, supercapacitors store energy electrostatically.

What are supercapacitors & ultracapacitor?

Supercapacitors or ultracapacitors offer unique advantages like ultrafast charging, reliable operation spanning millions of duty cycles alongside wide operating temperatures and collaborative integration with batteries or fuel cells for energy storage applications.

Are supercapacitors sustainable?

Our supercapacitors have been developed to meet the growing need for sustainable energy storage in wireless electronics. They offer the same benefits as conventional supercapacitors but with improved safety and a reduced environmental footprint – in a compact form factor.

Why do supercapacitors have a low energy density?

The energy density of supercapacitors, while impressive in terms of power delivery, typically falls short compared to traditional batteries. This limitation arises from their reliance on electrostatic charge storage rather than chemical reactions.

What is the smallest pouch supercapacitor in the world?

With its extreme form factor the 2R ranks among the smallest and thinnest pouch supercapacitors in the world! We have developed this product to meet the requirements for short-term energy storage in active smart cards, but it also does a great job as a battery-support component.
