One of the products that will instantly benefit from a graphene supply chain is supercapacitors.
Supercapacitors are used in battery applications that require many rapid charge and discharge cycles (rather than long-term compact energy storage).
This is important for the mobility sector because things like automobiles, buses, trains, and even elevators can use regenerative braking, short-term energy storage, and burst mode delivery.
Supercapacitors can store 10 to 100 times more energy per unit (of volume or mass) than traditional capacitors.
Although the battery industry has traditionally been a laggard in technology innovation, supercapacitor development is the breakthrough that leaders across the energy industry have been waiting on for decades.
Graphene is the main component within next-generation supercapacitors that will unlock innovations across energy storage, distribution, and mobility.
With just this one technology, graphene will revolutionize transportation and energy.
It has already been proven that hemp-based graphene can make supercapacitor 200% more efficient.
