RNV began using SuperCaps energy storage systems in 2009, and has integrated this technology into 30 of their trams. This provided sufficient energy for short catenary-free operation (CFO) distances. The PRIMOVE battery system builds upon Bombardier’s years of experience with energy storage systems.

Examples include photocatalysis, gas sensing and as Li-ion battery electrodes. The hierarchical nature of the pores also reduces the stresses in these electrodes during the charge/discharge processes, improving their structural stability and resulting in a longer life time for energy storage devices. —Zheng et al.
