Abstract

A hybrid energy storage system (ESS) includes a first energy storage device including a battery having an impedance for providing a substantially constant power output, and a second energy storage device linked to the first energy storage and including a high power electrochemical double layer capacitor (EDLC) for providing intermittent bursts of high voltage output in a range of 1.5 to 3.0 volts, wherein an operation rating of the second energy source is within a temperature range between 75 degrees Celsius and 330 degrees Celsius while exhibiting a leakage current less than 1 amp per liter of volume over the range of operating temperatures and at a voltage up to a rated voltage.
