Graphene energy storage

Graphene pouch-cell supercapacitors for high-power electronics.

Volfpack Energy develops thin-format supercapacitors for rapid power delivery, frequent cycling, and short-duration backup. Our current platform is available for prototype development and partner evaluation.

Results are from Volfpack prototype cells under documented internal test conditions. Application performance requires validation against the intended load and environment.

Pouch-cell development range

From millifarads to tens of farads.

Volfpack is developing pouch cells across six capacitance levels for compact pulse-power, bridge-power, and application-evaluation work.

Compact range60 mFPouch cell
Compact range100 mFPouch cell
Compact range500 mFPouch cell
Higher-capacitance range5 FPouch cell
Higher-capacitance range10 FPouch cell
Higher-capacitance range30 FPouch cell

Cell selection and suitability are evaluated against the intended voltage, load profile, physical envelope, and operating environment.

Two development paths

Power for the immediate event. More energy for what comes next.

Volfpack's tested graphene supercapacitor platform supports current prototype work. The hybrid-capacitor programme is the development path toward larger cells and longer discharge windows.

From materials to application

Cell development starts with the power requirement.

01

Materials research

Published work examines graphene-enhanced activated-carbon electrodes for supercapacitor applications.

02

Pouch-cell development

Flat geometry allows the cell format to be developed around spaces that may not suit cylindrical components.

03

Cell-level testing

Prototype cells are characterised and cycled before progressing toward application evaluation.

04

Electronics integration

Cell selection is considered alongside charging, protection, power electronics, and the actual load.

Applications

For short, repeated, high-power events.

Preserve data

Provide short-duration energy for a controlled shutdown or final data operation when primary power disappears.

Complete the final transmission

Support connected devices that need to send a final message after a loss of primary power.

Supply repeated radio pulses

Store low-rate or harvested energy, then release it for wireless communication events.

Support peak loads

Handle brief demand from compact electronics, telemetry equipment, scanners, actuators, and access systems.

These are evaluation use cases. Suitability depends on the electrical load, physical constraints, environment, and service-life requirement.

Validated progress

Built through research, testing, and collaboration.

Volfpack-affiliated authors have published supercapacitor-electrode research with researchers from the University of Peradeniya, the National Institute of Fundamental Studies, and HydroGraph Clean Power.

The company has received grant support from Sri Lanka's National Initiative for Research & Development Commercialization and National Science Foundation.
