The Breakthrough
In 2016, a fundamental scientific advance in polymer research was announced by Superdielectrics alongside the Universities of Bristol and Surrey.
Superdielectrics’ aqueous polymers have exceptional electrochemical properties that provide a step change advantage for energy storage.
Key Advantages of Our Technology
Hybrid Supercapacitor
This technology combines electric fields (physics) and conventional chemical storage (chemistry) to create a new aqueous polymer-based energy storage system. This technology has already completed over 1 million hours of testing.
Early markets:
- Fluctuating renewable energy storage
- Electric bikes
- Forklifts
Hybrid & Pure Supercapacitors
Over the past 2 years we have increased our cell energy density by 9 times.
In the future, the continuing development of our pure supercapacitor technology could exceed all battery technology.
Markets:
- Electric Aircraft
- Automotive
- Vertical Farming
What are supercapacitors?
Energy storage devices that can store electrical energy in electric fields.
Supercapacitors have high power density and can charge and discharge rapidly.
They have long cycle lives with wide operating temperature ranges.
Conventionally, supercapacitors have lower energy densities than batteries together with much higher costs. This has limited their potential applications and market adoption.
