IPRs essential or potentially essential to normative deliverables may have been declared to ETSI. The information
pertaining to these essential IPRs, if any, is publicly available for ETSI members and non-members, and can be found
in ETSI SR 000 314: "Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs); Essential, or potentially Essential, IPRs notified to ETSI in
respect of ETSI standards", which is available from the ETSI Secretariat. Latest updates are available on the ETSI Web
server (https://ipr.etsi.org/).
Pursuant to the ETSI IPR Policy, no investigation, including IPR searches, has been carried out by ETSI. No guarantee
can be given as to the existence of other IPRs not referenced in ETSI SR 000 314 (or the updates on the ETSI Web
server) which are, or may be, or may become, essential to the present document.

right to use or reproduce any trademark and/or tradename. Mention of those trademarks in the present document does
not constitute an endorsement by ETSI of products, services or organizations associated with those trademarks.
Foreword
This Technical Specification (TS) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Environmental Engineering (EE).
The present document is part 3 of a multi-part deliverable covering Innovative energy storage technology for stationary
use, as identified below:
Part 1: "Overview";
Part 2: "Battery";
Part 3: "Supercapacitor".
Modal verbs terminology
In the present document "shall", "shall not", "should", "should not", "may", "need not", "will", "will not", "can" and
"cannot" are to be interpreted as described in clause 3.2 of the ETSI Drafting Rules (Verbal forms for the expression of
provisions).
"must" and "must not" are NOT allowed in ETSI deliverables except when used in direct citation.
Executive summary
The present document is based on ETSI TS 103 553-1 [i.4] and is the part related to supercapacitors.

Introduction
The present document is part 3 of a series covering innovative energy storage technology for stationary use. This series
introduces the evolution of energy storage technologies applicable for use with stationary information and
communication technology/telecommunication (ICT/TLC) equipment and provides global results of investigations in
laboratories or from field tests in TLC/ICT network or customer premises (e.g. for resilience in a smart sustainable
city). Mobile and portable batteries lie outside the scope of the present document.
The present document was developed jointly by ETSI TC EE and ITU-T Study Group 5 and published respectively by
ITU and ETSI as Recommendation ITU-T L.1222 [i.6] and ETSI TS 103 553-3 (the present document), which are
technically equivalent.

1 Scope
The present document provides an overview of available SuperCapacitor (SC) technology, with details of SC
characteristics (electrical, mechanical, thermal) and applicability in the Telecommunication/Information and
Communication Technology (TLC/ICT) domain [i.1].
A general overview of the evolution of energy storage technologies is provided in ETSI TS 103 553-1 [i.4] and
Recommendation ITU-T L.1220 [i.5].
The adoption of SC technology is recommended for coverage of micro-interruptions of the public grid for indoor and
outdoor applications.
Examples of sizing and essential tests used in the network are described.
