[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 8323304, member: 576029"] the reason ultracapacitors change the game is because they exploit the equation for capacitance. surface area of plates and distance between plates are two factors. traditional electrolytic capacitors have foil plates (spiral wound). ultracapacitors have plates made of carbon which has 3,000 times more surface area. the massive increase in surface area is why they have so much more energy storage. ultracapacitors isn't a Maxwell brand but a generic name for capacitors with carbon plates. They have been around for a long time. Maxwell is one of the larger suppliers for the US with applications for many vehicles. we're also seeing them used in energy storage for solar and wind power applications. and large-format UPS manufacturers are implementing them in place of flywheel applications.
