The Market Reports

Synopsis
The global market for Supercapacitors was estimated to be worth US$ 983 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 1459 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 6.0% during the forecast period 2025-2031.
Supercapacitors mainly use fast and reversible redox reactions on the double layer or electrodes to store energy. The energy storage process does not produce chemical reactions. It has the characteristics of short charging time, long service life, good temperature characteristics, energy saving and green environmental protection.
The energy storage principle of Ultracapacitor (Supercapacitor) Cell is based on the adsorption or adsorption-desorption process of charge on the electrode surface, which is related to the working principle of electrochemical capacitors or electric double layer capacitors (EDLC). Usually, the electrodes of Ultracapacitor (Supercapacitor) Cell use high surface area materials, such as activated carbon, to increase the electrode surface area, thereby increasing the energy storage capacity. Compared with secondary batteries, it has better high current discharge characteristics. Based on its high power density (5-30 kW/kg, 10-100 times higher than lithium-ion batteries), extremely short charging time (several minutes or even tens of seconds), and ultra-long cycle life (104-106 times), it has received widespread attention in the field of energy storage. However, the overall research standards in the field are relatively vague, and the energy storage mechanism is unclear, which greatly limits the research and development of Ultracapacitor (Supercapacitor) Cell. At present, it has broad application prospects in the fields of information, electronics, instrumentation, energy, transportation and military industry.
In terms of product price, as the technology and application level mature, the overall price of Supercapacitors tends to be rational. In particular, small-capacity Supercapacitors have basically matured.
Due to the increasingly serious environmental pollution and energy shortage, Supercapacitors are increasingly used in trams, electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles. Supercapacitors can also play a key role in the start-stop system of electric and hybrid vehicles. Pure electric vehicles generate huge currents at the moment of starting, which can cause great damage to the car battery. Supercapacitors have high peak power and can release strong currents instantly, reducing braking energy consumption. Supercapacitors can also be used as auxiliary power sources for electric vehicles, which can effectively extend the service life of batteries. The power industry has also been affected by the digital revolution of the economy.
From smart meters, digital substations and smart electric vehicle charging infrastructure to software solutions such as artificial intelligence, digital twins, dynamic line ratings and blockchain technology, governments, utilities and manufacturers are increasingly adopting digital technologies. Wind power generation is an important application area for Supercapacitors. The power generation efficiency of wind turbines depends largely on the control system of wind turbines. Compared with other energy storage methods, Supercapacitors have several advantages as the power source of wind turbine control systems: high power density, high output power, fast response to wind changes; long service life, wide operating temperature range, can adapt to extremely cold or hot weather, and low maintenance cost. Especially in offshore wind power stations with high maintenance costs and difficulties, the advantages are more obvious; it can effectively improve the quality of power output from wind turbines. Due to the randomness and instability of natural wind, it will cause about 10% disturbance to the output voltage. Supercapacitors can respond quickly, store energy during high voltage periods, release energy during low voltage periods, and smooth the output voltage.
Improving performance and reducing costs are the main themes of supercapacitor development. Improving the capacity and cycle characteristics of capacitors and reducing costs have always been issues of concern to the industry. In terms of improving performance, new materials such as carbon fiber, metal oxides, carbon aerogels, carbon nanotubes, and composite electrode materials continue to emerge. The focus of electrolyte research is to develop materials with wide potential windows, high temperature resistance, and good ion conductivity. At present, supercapacitor electrode materials are mainly concentrated in: First, the use of existing electrode materials, such as double-layer capacitors combined with Faraday pseudocapacitive storage mechanisms, to increase capacitance; Second, the development of new electrode materials. In fact, the development of new electrode materials has never stopped.
