As we progress into the future, more and more stress will be placed on our energy storage capacity. In order to adequately prepare for the surge in power usage, new technologies need to emerge to effectively store large amounts of energy for timely consumption. US Patent 7,251,118 or simply put, the Non-Planar Super Capacitor will revolutionize our power storage capacity and address our growing demand for consumption.

Currently, there are few ways to store large amounts of charge for use at a later time or date. For example, power plants must constantly alter their output to address the ever-changing needs of customers and solar harvesting peaks at 2PM - three hours before the maximum demand for energy. The Super Capacitor will directly address these problems and many more.

By instituting this technology, we will now be able to harvest the energy produced by the sun and store it for use at the times when we are in most need of power. And power plants will be able to store their energy in large amounts to meet the future demands of customers. If we use this patent to construct super capacitors at the delivery end of power lines, establishing a constant power flow, we will decrease maximum capacity requirements. This will save in weight and cost of copper lines and support towers – essentially saving you, the taxpayer, money on construction and maintenance costs. Any application that utilizes electrical energy will benefit from this newly created technology. The options are virtually limitless.

member photo Hello Don,

My name is Aaron Weiss. I was just spending some free time at the office reading up on some technology/energy blog web sites. It's quite the coincidence that I came across your post because someone I am friendly with working at a technology magazine recently mentioned your name and idea to me the other night. It seemed interesting when he was describing it, and a nice conversation generated about the Super Capacitor.

Could you maybe tell us a little more about the Super Capacitor? I'm quite interested.

member photo This is definitely something that I see Power Companies investing in. It's a financially driven decision. If they can buy electricity in off-peak hours not only will then not have to upgrade their grid, but more importantly - they'll pay lower rates.

member photo Dear Mr. Nevin,

Please take a look at the need for a paradigm shift away from the vertically integrated utilities to electricity without price control (EWPC)to increase the odds of innovating with the supercapacitor technology. Please hit the link http://www.energyblogs.com/ewpc/index.cfm/2007/11/... for further details.

Best regards,
