A capacitor electric vehicle is a vehicle that uses supercapacitors (also called ultracapacitors) to store electricity. [1] As of 2010 [needs update], the best ultracapacitors can only store about 5% of the energy that lithium-ion rechargeable batteries can, limiting them to a couple of miles per charge. This makes them ineffective as a general energy storage medium for passenger

The most common and easiest connection method for a capacitor onto a bus bar is a screw or bolt on connection. Soldering or spot welding connection methods can also be used, but they greatly increase the cost and complexity of the design. In sum, the bus bar design starts along with the power electronics converter design.
Abstract – For years design engineers have chosen electrolytic capacitor technology for use as the bus link capacitor on inverter designs. The main attraction has always been the low cost per farad associated with electrolytic capacitors.
The bus link capacitor also plays a role in reducing the leakage inductance of the inverter power bridge. Leakage inductance in an inverter power bridge leads to inefficiencies due to the voltage spikes they produce when the power devices are switched on and off at a high rate of dI/dt.
Capacitors are usually applied as the energy buffer with passive power decoupling method. In , the minimum energy and capacitance requirements for the DC-bus capacitor are discussed. Besides, the double frequency harmonic, the high frequency harmonics still exist in the DC-bus.
