3. Product – Ceramic Battery
Ceramic battery is an electrostatic electrical energy storage. Ceramic battery is made of
circular or rectangular plate capacitors. Standard Y5V class ceramic blank production
technologies allow to obtain ceramic plates of 10 to 300 microns in thickness, which (after
vacuum diffusion alloying) acquire electrical strength of 30 V/µm with a dielectric permittivity
up to 400,000. Taking into account the availability and cheapness of materials used in ceramic
battery production, and the relative simplicity of technological production process, ceramic
batteries are able to achieve power consumption-energy-cost parameter part, which
substantially exceeds existing analogues.

4. Example of ceramic battery usage
High specific power and power consumption characteristics,
combined with low cost determine the use of ceramic batteries in
primary voltage ranges: 110 ... 220V (network batteries) and 300
... 3000V (high-voltage batteries). The following table summarizes
the main advantages of CBC-300/2000 ceramic battery, which is
equivalent in stored energy to Panasonic Ni-MH balancing battery
for Toyota-Prius, and of CBB-220/22 ceramic battery, which is
equivalent in stored energy to Ni-Cd traction battery for AEG
portable electric screwdriver.
