ELECTROCHEMICAL SUPERCAPACITOR/LEAD-ACID BATTERY HYBRID ELECTRICAL ENERGY STORAGE DEVICE

摘要

A hybrid lead-acid battery/electrochemical capacitor electrical energy storage device. The lead-acid battery and electrochemical capacitor reside in the same case and are electrically connected. Preferably, a hybrid device of the present invention includes at least one non-polarizable positive electrode, at least one non-polarizable negative electrode, and at least one polarizable electric double layer negative electrode. Separators reside between the electrodes and the separators and electrodes are impregnated with an aqueous sulfuric acid electrolyte. A hybrid device of the present invention exhibits high power characteristics.
