We offer practical solutions for complicated power delivery problems.
There are many use cases for supercapacitors from enhancing renewable energy sources and batteries to solving power quality challenges at shipping ports.
-
Oil & Gas
Oil and gas operations feature a multitude of drills, pumps, and other tools that are necessary - often times functioning off-grid. Supercapacitors can support traditional power sources like generators while optimizing space requirements, especially at offshore sites.
-
Live Events
Concerts, farmers markets, outdoor events, and athletic competitions all require power. Gas generators are loud and smell bad. Supercapacitors support batteries and renewables during power fluctuations, like a bass drop at an EDM concert.
-
Shipping Ports
Ports use significant levels of power to move containers with large cranes on and off the cargo ship which can lead to brownout conditions across the port and grid. Supercapacitors regulate power quality to fix this problem and support continuous operations.
-
Mobile Power
Mobile power units are needed for disaster recovery efforts. Supercapacitors ensures reliable power for first responders and aid organizations, providing essential resources during disasters. We improve reliability and resilience for those who need it most.
-
Mining
Mining operations require significant power resources, given the tools and pumps being used. Battery generators have grown popular for their reduced emissions, but they lack power capacity. Supercapacitors address that shortcoming.
-
Factory Automation
Robots and AMRs assisting in manufacturing processes that are operating off batteries will eventually wear out. Supercapacitors complement the robot’s battery to maximize lifespan and general productivity.
Powering Red Bull Rampage
Once a year, the side of a desert mountain in Utah essentially turns into a city. There are lights, cameras, drones, ovens, speakers, jumbotrons, and a lot more. How will they be powered? Gas generators were an industry standard, but a loud and smelly one. There are better ways that is clean, silent, odor free, and powerful.
How to remote power a jumbotron?
Gas Generators
The generator has to be sized to handle the 150kW peak. Plus, it is loud, smells like gas, and requires fuel to run.
Battery Generators
Batteries are great for long duration storage, but struggle with power fluctuations like these, silent but still oversized.
Capacitech
We pair batteries with supercapacitors to get the best of both world, silent and sized to achieve project goals.
A jumbotron draws different amounts of power based on the color on the screen. For example, a white screen may draw 150kW while a darker screen may only require 30kW.
Use case:
Capacitech has subject matter experts that know how to best utilize batteries, supercapacitors, and renewable energy resources to achieve goals. We offer custom engineering and consulting services to support organizations as the navigate difficult challenges.
