Capacitors that store energy based on the electrostatic double layer formed at the interface between an electrode and an electrolyte.

Electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs) function by accumulating electrical energy through charge separation at the interface of the electrode and electrolyte. Unlike traditional capacitors, they offer high capacitance values due to their larger surface area and the double-layer effect. EDLCs are commonly utilized in applications requiring rapid charge and discharge cycles, providing a solution for energy storage needs in various electronic devices. They are characterized by their ability to deliver high power output and longer cycle life compared to conventional capacitors.
