"capacitance 611 farads/ g stores 4X more energy, highest recorded for porous carbon... huge oxygen-rich surface area >4,000 sq. meters/ g for enhanced physico- and electro- chemistry, oxidation or reduction reactions... balances small and large pores: smaller provide bigger surface for storing charge, larger speed up charge/discharge rate performance ... mesopores doped with oxygen and nitrogen contribute most to capacitance... supercapacitors, regenerative brakes, power electronics and auxiliary power supplies"
