Contemporary History of Energy Conservation

• Dwelling heating fuel reduction—more insulation/designs

• Higher gas mileage in vehicles—smaller automobiles

• Hybrid vehicles developed—capture/store braking energy

• Energy capture, storage, and reuse in applications with

intermittent, reciprocating, or oscillating motion

ELECTROCHEMICAL CAPACITORS (ECs)

• Often called Supercapacitor or Ultracapacitor

• Invented by Standard Oil of Ohio in the 1960’s

• Product line introduced by NEC in 1978 (SOHIO license)

• Originally used for computer memory backup

• Appreciation of other attractive features in 1990s– Extraordinary power performance compared with batteries (charge too)

– Very high cycle-life compared with batteries

– Long, maintenance-free operational life

– Safe, environmentally friendly technology

JMEDOUBLE LAYER CAPACITOR CONCEPT

• Discovered by Helmholtz

• C ~ 10 F/cm2

on electrode

• Charge stored physically (not chemically)

• Voltage limited by decomposition potential of

electrolyte

• Extremely large capacitances from high-

surface-area carbon electrodes

JMEKinetic Energy Harvesting

• ECs are attractive energy storage media that offer much

more than simply being a battery replacement

• Thoughtful design allows full exploitation of EC technology

to achieve significant energy conservation in a broad range

of important applications

• Fast and efficient charge

• Fast discharge

• High cycle life

• Long operational life

• Safe, maintenance-free operation

• High reliability

• Effective heat shedding in high-cycle-rate applications
