Reliable energy storage for peak demands and uninterrupted power.
Supercapacitors have been heralded as replacements for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), offering a variety of compelling advantages, including increased safety, faster charging/discharging, and longer lifetimes. Despite advancements, fundamental differences between the two technologies limit the energy density of graphene-based supercapacitor technologies, making them unlikely to replace LiBs in the future. They are, however, ready for several other real-world applications where they act as complementary energy storage devices, particularly in the transportation sector.

To understand why supercapacitors have not replaced batteries, it’s important to understand the differences between these two types of devices, which stem from their architectures.
The differences in energy and power density are due to the way each of these technologies stores charges, which affects their capacitance and energy density.
Although their fundamental differences make supercapacitors unlikely to replace batteries, research is still focused on energy density improvements. Because the active material surface is the main charge storage location, research efforts are centered around developing active materials with a high surface area to increase the number of adsorbed ions, ultimately increasing the capacitance and energy density of supercapacitors.
