IDTechEx sees improving supercapacitors gaining market share against Li-ion batteries

Green Car Congress

Yunasko and others have demonstrated 35 Wh/kg, with the intermediate supercabatteries, matching lead-acid and NiCd batteries. They have replaced Li-ion batteries in most Chinese buses, despite greater up-front price. Maxwell Technologies expects tripling current energy density with pure supercapacitors.
