supercapacitors

Today, the electrodes in supercapacitors are usually made from activated carbon.

Electric cars become efficient if we can make physical batteries -- the so-called supercapacitors -- that can store a large amount of electric energy.

Ultracapacitors (also called supercapacitors or EDL capacitors) are similar to batteries, but with higher power and lower energy storage.

While many researchers have been looking to high-energy devices, called supercapacitors, or to a total battery overhaul to solve our consumer gadget energy crises, researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have merely tweaked a well-known and widely-used battery material to make a lithium-ion battery capable of discharging and recharging electricity like a fire hose rather than a faucet.

To deal with short-term wind fluctuations on the order of a few minutes, researchers will examine such technologies as different types of batteries; "supercapacitors" that function as a high energy storage device; flywheels that use mechanical approaches to store energy; and a concept called superconducting magnetic energy storage, or SMES devices.
