Solving the supercapacitor problem

Supercapacitors are a well established power storage technology, and have a unique role to play in the resilience of electrical infrastructure and battery energy storage systems. But until now, supercapacitors just haven't had enough energy to solve many problems cost effectively.

florrent gives our supercapacitors the energy boost they need to solve short-duration Power Quality & Reliability problems at lower cost, with a smaller footprint, and using domestically sourced materials. And, because florrent unlocks higher energy density at the material level, our supercapacitors don't sacrifice high power for greater energy.

Our innovative approach to active materials gives florrent supercapacitors—and the systems they build into—the energy to bring greater, longer lasting stability and reliability to electrical infrastructure everywhere.

TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE

Florrent's bio-based supercapacitor delivers a 55% increase in energy density, unlocking markets previously dominated by traditional energy storage technologies.

Our advantages

Energy Density

The holy grail for supercapacitors has always been energy density, because it allows them to provide high power for longer durations, bringing greater stability to systems which integrate them. florrent's supercapacitors embed industry-leading energy density without making trade-offs on other key performance characteristics.

Competitive Pricing

florrent's supercapacitor systems cost less per MJ. By creating a fundamentally more energy dense supercapacitor active material, we pack more Farads into the same space, so you need fewer cells, fewer modules, and less floor space to get the same power and energy provided by industry-standard supercapacitors.

Domestic Supply Chain

florrent's supercapacitor active material is derived from domestic biomass waste. florrent works with our network of Black and Indigenous farmers to source this biomass, bringing wealth back to partner communities, and sequestering carbon away in a solid mineral form that serves as  active material for our supercapacitors.

Compact Form Factor

our supercapacitor systems can provide  the same energy in a smaller footprint, or more energy in the same footprint. This means greater flexibility to right-size your power and energy requirements.

florrent applications

The high energy density of florrent supercapacitors unlocks new applications in Power Quality & Reliability that industry-standard systems are too expensive to address, applications like

Uninterriptable Power Supply (UPS)

Grid Modernization

Hybrid Energy Storage Systems (HESS)

florrent applications

The high energy density of florrent supercapacitors unlocks new applications in Power Quality and Reliability that industry-standard systems are too expensive to address:

Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS)

When the power goes out, your manufacturing business can lose time, product, and revenue. Even 1 second of power outage can lead to significant losses in productivity. When you need reliable power fast, supercapacitors are the answer—they can deliver truly uninterrupted power to critical loads until long-term backup power generation can kick in.

Grid Modernization

Applications like voltage support, frequency response, and black start all deal with extreme power fluctuations as grid infrastructure matches electrical supply and demand at the speed of light. The high power and long cycle life of supercapacitors are ideally suited to these critical grid ancillary services, which are coming under more strain as electrification and renewables penetration increase.

Hybrid Energy Storage Systems (HESS)

Batteries and supercapacitors are a great complement for each other. One has energy, the other has power. Hybridizing BESS systems with supercapacitors to create a HESS can lower  battery footprint, increase battery lifetime and safety by insulating batteries from power fluctuations and high ramp rates, and bring down initial and lifetime system ownership costs.
