Intense Life with Perennial

Environmental and Clean Energy Impact of Perennial's Supercapacitor Technology

The use of rechargeable lithium batteries continues to grow, supporting our mobile computing lifestyle. Better batteries would significantly reduce landfill waste. Being carbon based with no heavy metals and much longer cycle life, supercapacitors are far more environmentally friendly than standard batteries.

The company’s Perennial supercapacitors, efficiently co-packaged with batteries, absorb the high peak pulse currents, thus reducing the heating up and allowing more energy to be drawn efficiently out of the battery. This hybrid energy storage solution improves battery cycle life and safety and makes better, higher energy batteries possible. The battery cell can be designed to have higher energy content as it is not required to deliver the high peak pulse currents. Smaller, less expensive, and more efficient energy storage systems can thus be configured.

Perennial's thin sheet-like supercapacitor devices can fit into existing battery packs and device structures like handles without needing significant design changes, ensuring easier acceptance. Supercapacitors, which can recharge in seconds for hundreds of thousands of cycles, could also replace batteries where rapid charging is available reducing landfill. Energy storage devices that are structurally integrated and can be fit to the end product not only have greater cost-savings but will also significantly reduce unnecessary waste of batteries as well as the product they power. This is a solution with a significant impact on a double bottom line, saving costs and significantly reducing the waste stream of toxic materials.

The Perennial’s products currently see strong OEM customer interest for use with batteries in the largest upcoming market applications in portable consumer electronics.
