Skeleton Technologies
a ramp up phase through power quality applications like UPS, then in full scale with the transport and industrial sector. This means they are realistic about the development time for their product to be accepted in the transport sector for example.
The company seems to know well, where high power supercapacitor applications can be drive growth.
On Mr. Madiberk words:"Although the market is growing at a 30% rate, additional growth has been stalled by the lack of high energy and power densities needed by high-performance applications"
The company recently procured funding for an additional investment round.

Kopin Corporation
IDTechEx interviewed Hong Choi, the CTO/R&D Manager at Kopin corporation. Kopin span out of MIT over 30 years ago, and has been developing microdisplay technologies, starting with a $55m DARPA project in the early 1990s. Today, the company is focused on the wearable technology market, and particularly on near-eye computing. This profile also mentions their work on high-capacity, SiO-C anode lithium-ion batteries, developed with Hitachi Maxell.2015

Development avenues for electrolyte and separator systems
Supercapacitors have seen tremendous improvements over the past decade, resulting in higher power density, higher energy density and lower prices. Electrodes have seen the most amount of attention, effort and development. In this article however, we focus instead on electrolytes and separators. Directions in electrolyte research are towards high voltage, more stable and greener solutions. Similarly, separators need to improve purity and high voltage stability. This is particularly true if paper separators are to succeed. We will discuss these developments in this article.7 May 2015
Energy Harvesting & Storage Europe: Key Learnings from the 2015 Show
The recent IDTechEx event "Energy Harvesting and Storage Europe" in Berlin was once again a good barometer of what is happening in the industry. Here are some of our delegates' comments on our Europe 2015 event.10 Feb 2015
IDTechEx report from the first major supercapacitor event of 2015

New Supercapacitor Advances in Japan
Supercapacitor sales are mostly about automotive, with Chinese buses being the main destination of Ioxus and Maxwell supercapacitors and Japanese cars the main users of Nippon ChemiCon supercapacitors. French cars are the main users of Batscap supercapacitors and so on. IDTechEx analysts regularly visit many supercapacitor and lithium-ion capacitor (supercabattery) manufacturers and users in Japan the center of the global EV industry, with Toyota the leader by a large margin. Here are some of the findings.13 Jan 2015
Is there a future for flexible glass?
In the last three years, we have seen several companies showcasing ultrathin glass at tradeshows around the world. These glass substrates are so thin that they can be bent and rolled almost like a plastic film. But despite the fanfare surrounding the technical prowess, the future of flexible glass remains uncertain.2014

Review of supercapacitors in 2014 and the outlook for 2015
Whilst the industry has reduced its growth in comparison to the previous years (from an estimated 30% in 2014 vs 2013 to 15% in 2014 vs 2013), IDTechEx believes that this is just a temporary stagnation. Indeed, the fact that other companies are investing in manufacturing capacity and challenging the leadership of Maxwell Technologies is a positive sign for the industry and a good signal for the supercapacitor market, which by definition needs more than one major player. We believe that more manufacturer options across the globe will provide the required alternative supply that end user industries are requiring in order to warranty market competition. This article gives an overview of the major events and developments in 2014 and gives the IDTechEx outlook for 2015.22 Dec 2014

The graphene industry finds new market opportunities in California
The 5th IDTechEx conference and tradeshow on graphene and 2D materials- Graphene and 2D Materials LIVE! - has become the annual meeting place for the global graphene industry in California.28 Oct 2014
What is the Ultimate Limit of Supercapacitors?
Rapidly improving supercapacitors have been replacing lithium-ion batteries in many applications. The construction of supercapacitors is far simpler than batteries and there is every reason why the expensively-prepared, inherently low-cost supercapacitor materials and assembly technology should not continue to drop sharply in cost.8 Sep 2014
London Graphene Ltd
London Graphene Limited (LGL) was established in 2013. It is a company that develops super-capacitor applications and graphene might be used in the actual supercapacitors. The first target application is in the mobile phone sector where the power requirements are low, while in the longer term they wish to also target power tools and EV.1 Sep 2014
