Supercapacitor Battery
Although it has a large capacitance, its capacity is not as large as a battery, and it is not a true battery. It can be discharged very quickly, and the charge and discharge current can reach

3 FAQs about Reykjavik supercapacitor battery price
How much energy does a supercapacitor store?
A typical supercapacitor stores about 15 seconds of energy, for a capex cost of $10,000/kWh, but just $40/kW of power. This is down to very high power density (10-25 kW/kg, 10-25x higher than a lithium ion battery), albeit quite low energy density (2-10 Wh/kg, which is 95-99% below a lithium ion battery).
How much does a supercapacitor cost?
The capex costs of supercapacitors are contrasted with the costs of lithium ion batteries and the costs of flywheels in the chart below. A typical supercapacitor stores about 15 seconds of energy, for a capex cost of $10,000/kWh, but just $40/kW of power.
Are supercapacitors better than lithium ion batteries?
Hence, for short-duration, but very frequent and fast-acting voltage regulation, supercapacitors may be highly competitive with lithium ion batteries and flywheels. Numbers can be stress-tested in this model.
