Electrical energy buffering system

Electrical energy buffering system, comprising energy source means for delivering electrical energy, energy buffering means for buffering electrical energy delivered from the energy source means, the energy buffering means comprising a plurality of supercapacitors, and control means for controlling the operation of the energy buffering means by selectively switching the supercapacitors, wherein the plurality of supercapacitors are switchably connected in parallel to each other in a circuit comprising the energy source means and an electrical power output, and the control means comprise buffer monitoring means for monitoring a parameter representing the charge or discharge state, respectively, of each of the supercapacitors and are adapted to sequentially switch single supercapacitors or groups of supercapacitors on, responsive to the detection of a first predetermined charge or discharge state, respectively, and to switch them off, responsive to the detection of a second predetermined charge or discharge state, respectively.
