Global Supercapacitor Market

Supercapacitor Market Overview

A supercapacitor, also known as ultracapacitor, refers to a high-capacity capacitor with a capacitance value that is higher than other capacitors however has lower voltage limits. It is increasingly preferred over batteries as it has faster and simpler charging. A supercapacitor provides numerous benefits, such as it delivers high power and allows high load current due to its low resistance. There are basically three types of supercapacitors, which include double layer supercapacitor, pseudo capacitor, and hybrid capacitor.

Major Supercapacitor Market Drivers

The global supercapacitor market is anticipated to experience an upsurge in demand during the forecast period. The strong demand for supercapacitor in energy harvesting applications, along with its growing usage in trains and aircraft, are the two significant factors that are responsible for the growth of the supercapacitor market size during the forecast period. Moreover, the accelerating demand for electric vehicles is further contributing to the growth of the market. The supercapacitors have the ability to provide power in case of emergency shutdown or act as a backup source to low-power equipment such as RAM, SRAM, micro-controllers, and PC cards. In addition to this, the strong demand for stabilized power supply in applications with fluctuating loads such as GPS, laptops, computers, portable media players, and hand-held devices, is opening new doors for market growth.

The increasing demand for supercapacitors, particularly for automotive and consumer electronics applications, is another factor that is energizing the market growth. For example, Samsung Galaxy note 9 introduced nifty new feature: the S Pen stylus Bluetooth, which can be quickly charged using a supercapacitor. The large giants of different sectors are emphasizing on implementing supercapacitor in various product offerings. In 2019, Tesla Inc., one of the EV automaker, successfully acquired Maxwell Technologies Inc., for approx. USD 218 million. Through this acquisition, the company focuses on capitalizing on lucrative opportunities for electric vehicles and added expertise in the field of supercapacitors that could increase the car charging speed. Thus, the evolving automotive sector, due to the quest for constant advancements in supercapacitor’s performance, is further creating new growth opportunities for market growth.

Restraint in the Supercapacitor Market

The high cost of materials and low awareness of supercapacitors are the two major factors that are hampering the growth of the ultracapacitor market in the coming years.

Product Type – Segment Analysis

Based on the Product type, the hybrid capacitor segment is predicted to witness a faster CAGR during the forecast period. This is mainly due to the increasing usage of hybrid capacitors in a different type of consumer electronics such as mobile phones, laptops, wearable devices, thermal printers, and GPS chips. The leading manufacturers of hybrid capacitors are facing lack of raw materials and financial support to manufacturing hybrid capacitors due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the market is projected to bounce back in 2021, while increasing at a significant rate from 2021 onwards.

Application – Segment Analysis

On the basis of the application, the automobile & transportation segment is anticipated to grow at a faster CAGR during the forecast period. The hybrid buses and railways act as an important aspect of the supercapacitor market. The emerging trend of deploying metro trains in urban cities has drawn people’s attention to safety, energy conservation, efficiency, and freight wagon tracks. This factor has increased the demand for supercapacitors in the railway’s sector. The supercapacitors are being increasingly applied in the dynamic break storage and power recuperation and brake energy storage.
