Supercapacitors are a relatively new energy storage system that
provides higher energy density than dielectric capacitors and
higher power density than batteries. They are particularly suited
to applications that require energy pulses during short periods of
time, e.g., seconds or tens of seconds. They are recommended for
automobiles, tramways, buses, cranes, fork-lifts, wind turbines,
electricity load leveling in stationary and transportation systems,
etc. Despite the technological maturity of supercapacitors, there
is a lack of comprehensive literature on the topic. Many high
performance materials have been developed and new scientific
concepts have been introduced. Taking into account the commercial
interest in these systems and the new scientific and technological
developments now is the ideal time to publish this book, capturing
all this new knowledge. The book starts by giving an introduction
to the general principles of electrochemistry, the properties of
electrochemical capacitors, and electrochemical characterization
techniques. Electrical double layer capacitors and pseudocapacitors
are then discussed, followed by the various electrolyte systems.
Modelling, manufacture of industrial capacitors, constraints,
testing, and reliability as well as applications are also covered.
'Supercapacitors - Materials, Systems, and Applications' is part of
the series on Materials for
Sustainable Energy and Development edited by Prof. G.Q. Max Lu. The
series covers advances in materials science and innovation for
renewable energy, clean use of fossil energy, and greenhouse gas
mitigation and associated environmental technologies.
