[PSUBS-MAILIST] Ultracaps for submarines?

[Marc de Piolenc <piolenc@archivale.com>]

Here's a question for the borderline geniuses on the lists: what are the 
advantages, if any, of using supercapacitors or ultracapacitors for 
energy storage on board submarines? What are the disadvantages (other 
than cost)?

I only ask because my current translation job is about using ultracaps 
to store energy for propelling a ferry and for supplying ship's service 
power while underway.

Best,
Marc
