Currently they're only feasible as high quality power sources for fabs and other industrial uses because of the operating costs of cooling the superconductors.

- entropicdrifter 3y agoSo superconductor supercapacitors
- heisenzombie 3y agoMore like superinductors than supercapacitors - the energy is stored in a magnetic field (inductor) and not an electric field (capacitor)
