        NAWA Technologies’ new ultracapacitors will, says the company, revolutionise the growing global market for Internet of Things (IoT) devices, offering huge benefits in operational lifetime, cost, efficiency, safety and environmental impact.
        Ronald De Graaf, sales manager for IoT at NAWA Technologies explains: “Many IoT devices spend most of their lives on stand-by, requiring a low amount of energy.
        Our concept is the hybridisation of our NAWACap ultracapacitors with conventional batteries, resulting in the perfect solution for these applications, reducing size and improving performance.”
        IoT devices use many types of battery technologies, from non-rechargeable primary batteries such as regular AA or AAA alkaline to lithium primary cells to rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, but the need to provide repeated power bursts for transmission limits their lifetime, causing early failures or heat problems in the circuitry.
        Greener solutions, such as energy harvesters – for example solar power, or systems that use kinetic energy or salt water to generate energy – can supply a sensor with low-level ‘standby’ energy but not the short bursts of energy required for data transfer.
        NAWA Technologies’ NAWACap ultracapacitors are the solution.
        “Combining our NAWACap ultracapacitors with a lithium cell, creating a ‘hybrid’ battery, has many advantages.
        If we take a GPS tracking device as an example, often used to track valuable assets or integrated into the collar of a pet, the conventional approach is to use a non-rechargeable AA lithium battery, but this is very bulky,” continues Ronald De Graaf.
        “They are an energy source that can more than last the lifetime of a device – and, in fact, we believe we can double or even triple the lifetime of an IOT device, while greatly increasing the frequency of the data it can send in its life, making a step change in monitoring capability too.
