When supercapacitors and batteries are connected together, the ultracapacitor helps the battery operate more efficiently, reduces fuel consumption and increases the power density of the hybrid electric system. A recent study from Argonne National Laboratory concluded that combining an ultracapacitor with a lithium-ion battery system in electric and hybrid vehicles (PHEVs) reduces battery wear. Because electric and hybrid vehicles require more available energy in the battery, they place more stress on batteries than other applications. If too much stress is placed on the battery, wear can increase and shorten its life, leading to the need for costly replacement. By using ultracapacitors in parallel with lithium-ion battery systems, the ultracapacitor can absorb power peaks, leveling out energy demand. As a result, the vehicle becomes more energy efficient and the battery life is doubled.
Ultracapacitors provide reliable power and energy storage.
Ultracapacitors reliably perform a million or more charge-discharge cycles in all weather conditions without the need for replacement. The hybrid energy storage and delivery solution, consisting of ultracapacitors and batteries, enhances Canada Mobile Database the performance of hybrid and electric vehicles by meeting the various electrical needs of acceleration, power steering, electrical systems, starter systems, start-stop systems and regenerative braking systems. Ultracapacitors can absorb and store virtually all of the braking system's kinetic energy. When the vehicle is ready to accelerate, this energy is available and can reduce fuel consumption and associated emissions. This regenerative braking technology takes the stress off mechanical brakes, limiting the need for maintenance and brake replacement costs. In start-stop applications, ultracapacitors can also be coupled to batteries to allow the engine to shut down when a red light turns on or while driving. When a vehicle needs to accelerate, ultracapacitors can provide a quick burst of energy that restarts the engine.
As governments impose stricter fuel economy regulations and consumers demand cleaner, more efficient vehicles, manufacturers must take new approaches. The need for a hybrid energy storage and delivery solution is becoming even more important as automakers strive to meet government standards and attract and retain customers. By combining ultracapacitors and batteries, manufacturers can improve fuel economy and reduce emissions.
