Comment on China connects its largest battery-supercapacitor hybrid storage plant - Energy Storage
RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks agoA capacitor has ~1% of the storage capacity of a battery of similar power rating.
Saying its storage performance is better because its holds a larger % of that capacity at low temperatures is nonsense because its storage performance objectively sucks (and not what it’s designed to be good at)
It’s like saying a Tesla is better than a 747 because it can go from 0-60 faster. A technically true statement but a meaningless performance comparison.
