Here is the Super-Battery project. From lithium to graphene. Just as we once were Nehanderthal and now we are Sapiens Sapiens, you could say batteries were lithium-based and now are, or will soon be, graphene based. German company Skeleton Technologies, which specialised in energy storage patents for auotomobiles, is working on a new technology.

Tesla-rival Skeleton Technologies, the most successful Estonian DeepTech startup, launched a new product – SuperBattery and enters the huge 95 billion euros market of super batteries. Skeleton''s first partner for the new product is Shell, and their first joint project is electrifying off-road mining vehicles.
But for Skeleton Technologies and even battery manufacturers more broadly, there are good reasons for doing so. When looking at the manufacturing cost of super capacitors – one of Skeleton''s products – only five to six percent of the manufacturing costs stem from labor costs. super batteries can bridge the current gap, pun intended

Skeleton’s SuperBattery fills the technology gap between supercapacitors and batteries, offering the ideal combination of energy, power, and safety for <45-minute applications. SuperBattery is bringing us closer to a net-zero future. SuperBattery is an innovative technology combining the characteristics of supercapacitors and batteries.
Skeleton's Superbattery might not be the killer technology that gives your new EV super-fast charging times and a near-infinite lifespan, but it looks like it'll be a significant step forward in the less-glamorous niche of board net and peak smoothing applications, where it can deliver some impressive advantages.
SuperBattery is an innovative technology combining the characteristics of supercapacitors and batteries. 60 seconds of charging will allow for up to 30 minutes of driving, eliminating long charging breaks. SuperBattery has more than 10 times more charge-discharge cycles compared to Lithium-Ion batteries, providing much longer lifetime.
Skeleton has for years been known as the global technology leader in supercapacitors, a technology ideally suited for applications where high power is needed for a short amount of time (up to 60 seconds). In applications where power is needed for a longer time, supercapacitors are generally not the right fit due to their low energy content.
The difference is that a supercapacitor stores energy in an electric field, whereas a battery uses a chemical reaction. Supercapacitors have many advantages over batteries, such as safety, long lifetime, higher power, and temperature tolerance, but their energy density is lower compared to batteries. Learn more.

The European energy storage market is booming with Germany leading residential adoption (+58% YoY) thanks to €500/kWh subsidies. Italy's new tax credits drive 5.2GWh commercial deployments, while UK grid-scale projects exceed 8GWh with 2-hour duration systems. Key selection criteria: German-certified safety (VDE-AR-E 2510), 10+ year warranties, and VPP readiness. Top-performing products include Sonnen's hybrid inverters (98% efficiency) and BYD's Blade Battery (12,000 cycles @80% DoD). For snowy regions like Scandinavia, consider Huawei's -30°C compatible systems. France mandates carbon footprint declarations - Sungrow's ISO-14067 certified solutions gain preference.
For European homeowners, 5-10kWh systems with 3-phase compatibility are ideal. Top picks: 1) Tesla Powerwall 3 (13.5kWh, 97% round-trip efficiency) for smart home integration; 2) LG Chem RESU Prime for compact urban installations; 3) SMA Sunny Boy Storage for retrofit projects. Critical features: EU-made battery cells (exempt from CBAM tariffs), dynamic tariff optimization (like Octopus Energy integration), and fire-safe LiFePO4 chemistry. Southern Europe demands 85%+ depth of discharge capability, while Nordic markets require -25°C operation. Always verify CEI 0-21 compliance for Italian grid connection and EnWG certification for German feed-in.
