Supercapacitor electrode materials

Supercapacitors, or electric double layer capacitors, are quickly supplanting traditional battery technology in a variety of industries.  Electrode materials are the primary determinant of supercapacitor performance.  EnerG2 synthesizes high-performance supercapacitor electrode materials by controlling the molecular self-assembly of the materials.  The resulting material has the physical characteristics required for high-performance supercapacitor applications, but at a fraction of the cost. 

Hydrogen storage

The promise of clean, efficient power from hydrogen fuel cells requires significant advancements in hydrogen storage technologies.  Metal and chemical hydrides are well known for the volumetric and gravimetric density of their hydrogen content, but suffer from serious limitations in a manageable storage system.  EnerG2 nanocomposites provide the density benefits of hydrides by eliminating some of the most challenging system management problems.

Photovoltaic applications

The drive to reduce the per-watt cost of solar cells has been relentless.  Nonetheless, the efficiency of these systems continues to place them beyond the threshold of mainstream adoption.  EnerG2’s nanomaterials can be integrated into solar cell manufacturing to enhance the energy efficiency – and therefore the potential market penetration – of a broad range of photovoltaic applications.
