Energy consumption in the world has increased significantly over the past 20 years. In 2008, worldwide energy consumption was reported as 142,270 TWh [1], in contrast to 54,282 TWh in 1973; [2] this represents an increase of 262%. The surge in demand could be attributed to the growth of population and industrialization over the years.

Electrochemical capacitors. ECs, which are also called supercapacitors, are of two kinds, based on their various mechanisms of energy storage, that is, EDLCs and pseudocapacitors. EDLCs initially store charges in double electrical layers formed near the electrode/electrolyte interfaces, as shown in Fig. 2.1.
