An increasing recourse to renewable energies is one of the key solutions to address the current resource and environmental concerns related to the world energy supply. Because of the distributed and intermittent nature of several of them (Solar, Wind), an ...
Supercapacitors are components for energy storage. Due to their series resistors, the energy efficiency of supercapacitors can be low. In this paper, the unloading of supercapacitors with constant current and power are studied, to identify and take into ac ...
Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of redox-active molecules on mesoscopic substrates exhibit two-dimensional conductivity if their surface coverage exceeds the percolation threshold. Here, we show for the first time that such molecular charge transport laye ...
Ultracapacitors, also called electrochemical double layer capacitors (EDLC) or supercapacitors, may improve the performance of conventional electrolytic capacitors in terms of specific energy, or improve the performance of rechargeable batteries in terms o ...
Dedicated for energy storage, supercapacitors offer new solutions in various applications. This contribution describes briefly main principles of supercapacitors, basics for the design of a supercapacitive tank, and the needed power electronics development ...
A new methodology is presented, based on energy-flow analysis on systems. The aim is to obtain a representation of energy flows between the various sources of a complex system, via energy storage devices connected together with electrical and mechanical co ...
This paper presents a study and experimentation of a hybrid energy storage system prototype, based on Compressed Air, where the charging and discharging is done within maximum efficiency conditions of the volumetric machine. As the maximum efficiency condi ...

Supercapacitors are electrochemical double layer capacitors, dedicated for the energ storage. Even if the energy density is still lower than that one of batteries, the supercapacitors are defined with a higher power density. The main advantage of that prop ...
Supercapacitors represent one of the newest innovations in the field of electrical energy storage, and will find their place in many applications where energy storage is needed, or can help to the smoothing of strong and short-time power solicitations of a ...
