Ultracapacitor Resistance Breaking Down Among Automakers? Ultracapacitors have been the next big thing in energy storage for well over a decade.

Ultracapacitor Resistance Breaking Down Among Automakers?

And while automakers have been hung up on their far greater price (per energy stored), and prices haven’t decreased all that significantly, there are some indications that automakers are softening in their resistance. Part of the reason is that for engine stop-start systems, they make a lot of sense. As they can store energy quickly—energy that can then be released as needed—ultracapacitors are great choices for those arrangements, as well for hybrid (and fuel-cell) vehicles, to get better efficiencies as part of rapid braking or acceleration.

Tesla’s Ultra-Speed Hyperloop Transportation System Will Change Transportation As We Know It

Elon Musk is at it again. Next year the construction of an innovative, ultra-speed transportation system calledHyperloop will commence in central California. It is the world’s first supersonic overland transport system, with the ability to reach speeds up to 800 mph. The 21st Century Future in Motion.
