Bloemfontein''s Energy Revolution: Why Supercapacitors Are
As we approach Q4 2025, watch for the Mangaung Metropolitan''s pilot project combining wind farms with modular supercapacitor units - potentially tripling our region''s renewable absorption
Supercapacitors are a well established power storage technology, and have a unique role to play in the resilience of electrical infrastructure and battery energy storage systems. But until now, supercapacitors just haven't had enough energy to solve many problems cost effectively.
Capacitors are a form of energy storage that uses static electricity to store power instead of chemicals like batteries do. Supercapacitors can do this with extreme efficiency. Our supercapacitors are equipped with two metal plates that act as conductors and accumulate electrical charges, storing energy.
But until now, supercapacitors just haven't had enough energy to solve many problems cost effectively. florrent gives our supercapacitors the energy boost they need to solve short-duration Power Quality & Reliability problems at lower cost, with a smaller footprint, and using domestically sourced materials.
Batteries can provide about 10 times more energy over a longer period than supercapacitors, but supercapacitors can provide energy about 10 times faster than batteries can. That's why supercapacitors are often used in applications that draw a lot of energy very quickly like electric vehicles. What is a supercapacitor?
