Batteries are great, but they are not perfect. The same can be said about supercapacitors. Actually, where one is strong the other is weak. This is why there is growing interest in using both at the same time, but that can be challenging. In this article, we talk about differences between batteries, supercapacitors, hybrids, and how Capacitech’s unique approach to energy storage systems overcomes challenges faced in the past.

This was a mission-critical test case for Red Bull. The goal was to recharge the drone batteries quickly, needing high levels of power. The battery generator did not have the peak power required nor the power quality to complete the task on its own, but in combination with Capacitech's products, the system worked without a hitch!
