Supercapacitors have excellent power density (kW/kg) and good energy density (Wh/kg) as compared to traditional capacitors. They are able to provide better efficiency in energy storage. Supercapacitor also present a longer lifetime, fast charging and discharging time, these characteristics enable th...
