A Katwala, Supercapacitor breakthrough could speed uptake of electric vehicles, Professional Engineering, March 2018, p 7
In UK, Superdielectrics are teamed with the Universities of Bristol and Surrey in developing a supercapacitor based on soft contact lens technology that will raise the current level of 0.3 F/sq.metre to between 11 and 20 F/sq.metre. If these values can be sustained in production, charging times of electric cars could be reduced from eight hours to a few minutes.
