India’s first supercapacitor manufacturing facility operational in Kannur

Keltron at Mangattuparam in Kannur has made a significant milestone with the setting up of the country’s first supercapacitor manufacturing facility.

Supercapacitors, hailed as the next-generation capacitors, boast unparalleled energy storage capabilities, particularly excelling in storing more energy within a lower voltage range. The cutting-edge facility, being established at an investment of ₹42 crore, is a collaborative effort with technical support from the Indian Space Research Organisation.

The first phase of the project, constructed at ₹18 crore, includes essential infrastructure such as dry rooms and production facilities capable of yielding 2,100 capacitors daily.
