And it might even replace batteries. </div><div class="gmail_default"><br></div><div class="gmail_default">Capacitors are batteries' first cousins<span style="font-family:'Arial Unicode MS',sans-serif">—</span>they provide strong bursts of power over short periods of time. For Example, capacitors provide acceleration for a car to get it to a speed where the battery can then take over. Additionally they are used in a multitude of consumer electronics where they can respond much faster than batteries. Traditionally, capacitors have been limited by their low voltage and lack of sufficient energy density. EEStor is applying several advanced proprietary technologies that overcome those limitations, thereby resolving many problems and opening up additional uses in large markets. </div><div class="gmail_default"><br></div><div class="gmail_default"><table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="779" style="margin-left:5.4pt;border-collapse:collapse;border:none"><tbody><tr style="height:60.5pt"><td width="779" valign="top" style="width:467.5pt;border:1pt solid black;padding:4pt;height:60.5pt"><p align="center" style="text-align:center">Date: Friday, July 10, 2015</p><p align="center" style="text-align:center">Time: 8:00am – 10:00am</p><p align="center" style="text-align:center">Organizer: Gelvin Stevenson, PhD</p><p align="center" style="text-align:center">Sponsor and Host: Crowell & Moring.

EEStor<span style="font-family:'Arial Unicode MS',sans-serif">’</span>s technology had shown a lot of progress over the years attracting investment from the likes of Kleiner Perkins, but it had yet been able to productize their developments within the broad energy storage or electronics markets.
