Battery Technology
With a looming energy and oil crisis, improvement in Energy storage technology might be the best way forward in the immediate. While many are looking for alternate energy sources, there is an immediate need for rationing energy that we can still produce for our needs. Startups should be looking to provide solutions in this space.
We would be seeing the following rising in demand in the immediate. This has already started:
- Energy efficient equipment using low power
- Telecommuting to avoid Commuting Energy spend
- Energy Storage Technology for highly energy efficient equipment
The Ultracapacitor or the Supercapacitor energy storage story was something just out of Sci-Fi. If any of you saw the newer version of Planet of The Apes you would have seen a display showing "energy capacitors" referring to the new Ultracapacitor technology. It seems that necessity does indeed drive technology to land earlier than it would have otherwise.
Here's a car that will be using ultracapacitors. You could read more about it here. Energy efficient technology has been a much anticipated need, but has huge challenges in integrating and providing solutions to the end customer. Here is a webmag that has a lot of information on the technology available today.

This seems to be a great workable solution , but the problem might be the energy loss due to dissapation.
So you might have to use the charged ultracapacitor immediately and you can't store the energy for a longer period of time.
