Any machine that needs quick and powerful energy in irregular frequencies could benefit from a super cap. Recently imposed CO2 regulations and the increasing concerns about danger and health related to the indoor use of fossil fuels enforced the implementation of supercapacitors over the last years. Forklifts are the sector where new technologies have the best chance for launching since the production volume is much larger than that of other heavier machines. Even in consumer electronics, the super cap comes in handy, as it assists the flashlight in smartphones, or guarantees the writing speed of cache memory backup.
