Pavan Kumar – 11/26/08,
97% of Transportation dependent on gasoline
60% is imported oil Release 2000 metric tonnes Less than 3% of the proven world reserves
Solution?
Possible Technical Issues Horsepower Range Battery Life Efficiency
Instanst Charge/DischargeNO heat or Chemical RXNNo OverchargingLong LifetimeOperating Temp is -50C to 100CNo Harzardous Waste
More Power!Reduced Battery Size – Design and
cost Regenerative BrakingGreater Efficiency – 14%Load Leveling – absorb power during
surges and discharge during dips
1. Energy Density – Stand alone ultracap systems not possible
Cost – Can be 10x the cost of Batteries
Graphene
Graphene has a surface area of 2,630 square meters, almost the area of a football field, per gram of material
