Increasing comfort requirements, autonomous driving and reductions in CO
2 lead to a growing demand for electrical power in a vehicle with a simultaneous rise in system variations. Additionally, increasing transient loads and the growing requirement for high cycle rates and redundant safeguarding require new ways of storing energy in the vehicle's electrical system. This is where supercapacitors have huge advantages, both as individual cells for low-voltage storage as well as interconnected as a module for energy storage in 12-V, 24-V or 48-V electrical systems. The systems are normally not in competition with conventional lead or lithium-ion batteries, but offer themselves as a cost-effective and easy supplement for conventional batteries in specific use-cases, as Eberspächer shows. ...
