Battery technology is the talk of the town right now, as it’s the main bottleneck holding up progress on many facets of renewable energy. There are other technologies available for energy storage, ...

Ohmic resistors are generally employed to limit the current when charging capacitors. This, however, is accompanied by technical risks. If, for example, the capacitor short circuits or the relay has a ...

There are many applications which require pulse power. The needed burst of energy is derived by rapidly discharging a previously charged capacitor. As the energy stored in a capacitor is equal to ...
