Researchers create supercapacitors from waste PET plastic bottles that could power electric vehicles and electronics within 5 ...

Researchers at the Queensland University of Technology have added another hybrid supercapacitor design to the mix, promising the near-instant charge and discharge of a supercap with vastly improved ...

Relatively low power applications which only operate when there is indoor light, providing sub mW power and transmitting with BLE. The supercapacitor need only be sized for the energy and power to ...

Supercapacitors offer quicker recharge and discharge times than batteries but suffer from diminished capacity. Most supercapacitors use porous carbon as active electrode materials, such as activated ...

One of the biggest challenges for wireless sensor networks is that of power. Solar panels usually produce less power than you hoped, especially small ones, and designing super low power circuits is ...

A new material called multiscale reduced graphene oxide could mean faster charging and power delivery than traditional batteries allow.

A capacitor is like a high-speed battery that can quickly store and release energy. What happens when it becomes 'super?' Researchers have potential solutions to improve energy-efficiency. Researchers ...

Design teams are now eyeing supercapacitors for a range of new products in energy harvesting, office automation, backup systems, and more. These supercapacitor cells provide efficient storage that can ...

Lamborghini has chosen a radically different way of dipping its toe in the waters of hybridization with the announcement of its new Sián, which couples a screaming, naturally aspirated V12 engine with ...

Sometimes the simplest hacks are the most useful ones, and they don’t come much simpler than the little supercapacitor LED flashlight from serial maker of cool stuff [Jeremy S. Cook]. Little more than ...

Researchers have developed a new analysis technique that will help scientists improve renewable energy storage by making better supercapacitors. Researchers from the University of Surrey's Advanced ...
