The Ultracapacitor Advantage1. When connected in parallel with grid power, the ultracapacitor provides

instantaneous power when needed2. Peak power shaving and highly efficient regenerative capability 3. During power outages, ultracapacitors provide bridge power until a fuel cell,

generator or other temporary power source is started4. Individually powering control circuitry, ultracapacitors insure that critical

safety switches are operable during power outages

Major Applications• Critical continuous manufacturing facilities• Material Handling (forklift and scissor lifts)• Hospitals and other emergency facilities• Replace banks of lead-acid batteries at power grid and

telecommunication relay sites• Provide startup power for industrial and home fuel cells
