Chapter 318: Terrifying supercapacitors, the twilight of the lithium battery industry? !

After saying that, Lin Feng waved his hand gently.

Then, the energy density of the first generation supercapacitor and its fast charging and fast discharging performance parameters appeared on the projection screen behind him.

When people saw the energy density, fast charging, fast discharging and other performance parameters of the first generation of supercapacitors, they were all stunned.

Putting aside the traditional advantages of capacitors such as fast charging and fast discharging, the energy density of the first generation of supercapacitors was an astonishing 336.7Wh/kg!

That’s an astonishing number!

Because the energy density of various lithium batteries currently on the market is generally only between 100~300Wh/kg.

Although the energy density of new lithium batteries released by some companies can reach over 400Wh/kg.

But they currently have no way to mass-produce it and have only achieved success in the laboratory.

Under such circumstances, the energy density of Xingtu Technology's first-generation supercapacitor reached 336.7Wh/kg, which is really an amazing energy density.

After all, take the Tesla Model 2019 electric car, which was officially sold to China in February 2, as an example.

The battery used in this electric car is the 21700 lithium battery jointly developed by Tesla and Panasonic.

The energy density of this 21700 lithium battery is 300Wh/kg, which is 18650% higher than the current best 20 lithium battery and is considered the strongest in the world.

But these so-called strongest in the world are just that, because compared with the first generation of supercapacitors launched by Xingtu Technology, they are simply not strong enough.

After all, Xingtu Technology’s first-generation supercapacitor achieved an astonishing energy density of 336.7Wh/kg!
This energy density is nothing compared to the solid-state lithium battery that was in the laboratory in 2024, where a certain company claimed to have achieved 720Wh/kg.

But in the current year of 2019, it is still quite amazing, with an astonishing energy density that is like breaking the sky.

And to be honest, the energy density of solid-state batteries in a company's laboratory in the past could reach 720Wh/kg.

But they have no way to mass-produce it. It is only in the laboratory. What’s the point of claiming to have made a major breakthrough?

Therefore, with the current energy density of 336.7Wh/kg of the first-generation supercapacitor, it will still be able to outperform all lithium batteries by 2024, ushering in the twilight of the lithium battery industry.

Even if the solid-state battery with an energy density of 720Wh/kg can be mass-produced, the first-generation supercapacitors will still have a chance to compete with it and will not be defeated too badly.

The reason why supercapacitors are called supercapacitors is that they can discharge and charge quickly.

Although the charging speed of solid-state lithium batteries is quite amazing in some aspects, they are still weak compared to supercapacitors.

Therefore, due to its fast discharge and fast charging characteristics, people still prefer to use this first-generation supercapacitor that can be fully charged in a super short time and supports fast discharge.

Moreover, this fast charging and fast discharging performance is particularly important for various construction machinery and automobiles.

Because they occasionally need to accelerate suddenly, they can convert a large amount of electrical energy into strong power by instantaneously outputting it.

Finally, it is impossible for construction machinery and cars to stay in one place for a long time to charge, and the charging speed that takes at least half an hour is simply unbearable.

If it can be fully charged in a dozen seconds or no more than 5 minutes, it can undoubtedly fully meet the needs of construction machinery and automobiles.

So when people saw the energy density of the first generation of supercapacitors, they all showed stunned expressions of surprise.

"hateful!"

At this time, the president of Panasonic, the world's most well-known battery giant, slammed the table in anger.

At this moment, his eyes were red, and he looked at Lin Feng with anger and murderous intent. You have to know that the 21700 lithium battery developed by Panasonic and Tesla at great cost has only been put into production for less than a year.

As a result, you immediately launched a first-generation supercapacitor with an energy density of 336.7Wh/kg. Isn't this too infuriating?

Although the energy density difference between the first-generation supercapacitor and the 21700 lithium battery is only 36.7Wh/kg.

That is to say, the first generation of supercapacitors only have a 12% energy density lead, and it seems that the energy density gap has not reached a desperate level.

But the question is whether this is a capacitor that can be charged and discharged quickly, or a supercapacitor.

Based on the fast charging and fast discharging performance parameters shown above, the president of Panasonic just did a rough calculation.

Then I desperately discovered a supercapacitor board with a capacity of 100 kWh. If the charging end and the power management system can keep up, it will only take less than 1 second to fully charge!
Although the actual situation is to reduce the pressure on the charging system, power grid system, and power management system, it is impossible to fully charge the battery all at once.

Instead, it reduces the pressure on major systems by slowly charging.

But even so, it is easy to fully charge 5 degrees of electricity in 100 minutes.

Even a few seconds or even more than ten seconds will do if necessary.

As long as your various systems can support fast input and output of Baidu power, the first-generation super battery can easily support one-second discharge and one-second charging.

As a result, the president of Panasonic discovered in despair that the 21700 lithium battery they had invested heavily in developing was going to go to waste.

It can even be said that from now on, the lithium battery industry will usher in its twilight years!
"hateful."

The president of Panasonic cursed again and then felt deeply despair.

Of course, at the same time, Panasonic is not the only one in despair.

In fact, all companies around the world that are developing and producing lithium batteries are in despair.

Among them, of course, BYD Auto is also included.

After all, in addition to being an electric car manufacturer, they are also a lithium battery manufacturer, and the blade lithium iron phosphate batteries they produce are world-famous.

At this time, with Lin Feng releasing the first generation of supercapacitors, all the liquid lithium batteries they were developing and producing could be thrown away.

At present, the only relatively strong research is the research on solid-state lithium batteries, but solid-state lithium batteries cannot be mass-produced and are still in the research and development stage.

So, Biyadi and his men were really unlucky, and the losses they suffered were quite heavy.

Of course, although their losses are quite heavy, it does not mean that they will go bankrupt.

After all, even though the lithium battery business has collapsed, don’t they still have the electric car business?
Their BYD electric car brand has been established globally and is the second largest electric car brand after Tesla.

At this time, they only need to replace the blade battery of the new car with the first-generation supercapacitor produced by Xingtu Technology, and then design and match the car's energy system.

Then they can continue to sell their electric cars, and even sell them better than before.

After all, with their status as a Daxia enterprise, it would definitely be a good deal for them to buy the first generation of supercapacitors from Lin Feng.

If the production capacity is insufficient, priority will definitely be given to supplying Daxia's enterprises.

So although they are in a bit of a pity, they can still survive and will still be a well-known and excellent company in the future. (End of this chapter)
