“Ultracapacitors can work as electric energy storage devices and support heavy applications during peak consumption. The demand for uninterrupted power supply for long hours is increasing across segments such as automotive, industrial applications, consumer electronics, and energy storage sectors. From basic home appliances, computers, and entertainment gadgets, to heavy electrical applications, there is high demand for power backup with high-energy storage devices,” said Asif Gani, one of Technavio’s lead analysts for embedded systems research.

“To overcome the high cost factor and demand-supply issues concerning the use of fossil fuels, end-users such as the industrial and transport segments are likely to switch over to stored power supplies with the help of ultracapacitors during the forecast period,” added Asif.

Largest segment: ultra-capacitor market by consumer electronics

The global ultra-capacitor market by consumer electronics was valued at USD 240 million in 2014. The global smart devices market has been growing constantly over the past few years. Advances in technology have created the demand for portable, intelligent, and sustainable devices. Ultra-capacitors in consumer electronics are first charged using a primary power supply. The device then provides a backup to handle power consumption demands of electronic devices such as cellphones, cameras, and navigation systems. They also reduce hazardous effects to the environment caused by disposal of batteries. Another reason for using ultra-capacitors in consumer electronics is the need for smaller and lighter energy storage solutions that can provide the same quantity of power as their alternatives.

Second largest segment: ultra-capacitor market by transportation

The global ultra-capacitor market by transportation was valued at close to USD 460 million in 2014. With temperatures rising across the globe due to carbon emissions from fossil fuels, the world is rapidly looking for greener modes of transportation, and it is predicted to augment the adoption of ultra-capacitors during the forecast period.

Many hybrid buses with hybrid-electric propulsion systems are also anticipated to use ultra-capacitors to reduce emissions. The use of regenerative brake systems in vehicles such as cars and buses will witness a key application in the adoption of ultra-capacitors. Its implementation helps absorb all kinetic energy, and stores it for later use.

Global ultracapacitor market by industrial manufacturing

The global ultracapacitor market for industrial manufacturing was valued at USD 160 million in 2014. The ultracapacitors market in industrial manufacturing applications will grow rapidly during the forecast period. The initial adoption will be very high due to the benefits of ultracapacitors. The high initial cost of ultracapacitors is expected to be offset by the productivity, consistency, and durability of these devices. Large manufacturers, such as Caterpillar have already started using ultracapacitors to reduce fuel costs and provide energy recuperation. This trend will likely continue well over the forecast period and buoy further market growth.
