GODI India has announced that it has manufactured India’s first ever 3000F high power supercapacitors. These were produced at the company’s Hyderabad facility.
Integration of GODI India’s supercapacitors along with battery packs would improve the battery life multi-folds in Electric Vehicle (EV) and Renewable (ESS) applications. Dr. Milan Jana and Dr. Pushpendra Singh are behind the GODI India supercapacitor’s design, development and demonstration, GODI India said in a statement.
GODI India has developed a range of supercapacitor products that offer higher power delivery, minimal ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance), excellent energy density, better shock and vibration protection, and lakhs of charge-discharge cycles.
Supercapacitors are devices used in power-smoothening, pitch-control, start-stop, regenerative-braking, smart-grid, active heave compensation, and specialty UPS applications.
Green product
Commenting on this achievement, Mahesh Godi, Founder and CEO of GODI India, said, “GODI India is producing cost-effective and plant-based carbon-carbon supercapacitors using water-based electrode processing. We have a variety of supercapacitor products ranging up to 3000F. At present, we are in the process of developing high-voltage lithium-ion capacitors, as well. We are also working on hybrid capacitors with higher energy densities to replace Lead-Acid batteries in wide range of the applications. These capacitors are environmentally sustainable, green and clean, and highly recyclable.”
Market size
The estimated global market size of supercapacitors is $25 billion by the year 2030. Considering India is the fourth largest automotive maker and third largest energy consumer in the world and growing rapidly towards electric vehicles and renewables, it is estimated that the supercapacitor market will grow by more than 16% CAGR in the next five years with a market size of $5 billion.
Local supply chain
“GODI India is planning to commission 200kWh of supercapacitors production facility to cater to various local requirements and export markets. GODI India is also keen to develop custom-designed supercapacitor products as per strategic segment requirements and aiming to localize 100 per cent supply chain of the supercapacitors manufacturing in the next one year,” Mahesh Godi added.
