Why are ultracapacitors needed?
Ultracapacitors are electrochemical double-layer capacitors that can be used as fast-response energy storage. This is particularly important in sensitive infrastructure and industrial applications to safely absorb and bridge grid fluctuations or short interruptions. While both systems feature the FREQCON Multi-Source Converter and the ultracapacitor storage as the main component, the UGS and UUPS solutions differ in terms of sizing and application.
FREQCON therefore offers two different ultracapacitor systems:

UGS (Ultracapacitor Grid Stabilizer), which ensures reliable grid stability within 150 milliseconds, and U-UPS (Ultracapacitor Uninterruptible Power Supply), which provides uninterrupted power for up to 10 seconds with an exceptionally fast response time of under 20 milliseconds.
