Evolution over the last 12 months
“…C2C New Cap are particularly well suited for such applications [wind and solar] because they have great potential for minimising the
cost of ownership to values substantially below competing battery and capacitor technologies.”
Professor John Miller, President of JME Inc. (supercapacitor consultant), Professor at Case Western Reserve University, Great
Lakes Energy Intitute
“The most promising application is engine cranking.”
Vanner Inc., leader in power management and power transformation for commercial transportation for more than 30 years in the
USA.
“There are some major advantages of aqueous electrolyte: Aqueous supercapacitors are very simple to integrate, more energy dense,
higher energy capacity, life expectancy”
KBI Inc. (Expert Leader In Engine Starting Solutions)
“Aqueous electrolyte capacitors […] have the highest conductivity at a low temperature, much higher than any other”
Professor John Miller.
“You are right we have interest in your C2CNewCap product.
So it would be great to have a meeting to learn more about how your product works.”
Moog Una GmbH (Pitch Control OEM)
