Performance and Safety Features of Clarios Supercapacitor Technology

Clarios said it designs its supercapacitors to store and dispense bursts of high power. This is suitable for functions like steer-by-wire, while adding minimal weight to vehicles. The system solution delivers on-demand power in any circumstance. This proves especially critical for functional safety features. The supercapacitors complement AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) batteries in these vehicle applications and the overall system architecture. This provides power stabilization, fuel efficiency improvements through regenerative braking, as well as redundancy for safety.

“We recognize the crucial role we play in helping automotive manufacturers achieve their growing power, safety, and sustainability targets,” said Federico Morales-Zimmermann, Vice President & General Manager, Global OEM Customers, Products, and Engineering at Clarios. “Our supercapacitors offer a reliable and efficient solution to address these increasing demands in modern and software-defined vehicles”.
