The operating temperature range of supercapacitors is -40°C to +70°C, while the operating temperature range of commercial supercapacitors can reach -40°C to +80°C.
Most supercapacitor manufacturers specify the safe operating temperatures in the range of −40 to 70°C. Chapter 2 presents more treatment of the subject matter on Thermal Considerations for Supercapacitors. They have excellent low temperature performance which can meet the power needs in extreme weather conditions in heavy electrical applications.

For example, designing a 0-700C supercapacitor into a system that will experience 850C ambient temperature is not recommended, regardless of whether the temperature increase is temporary.
The life of supercapacitors will double for every 10°C decrease in temperature or voltage by 0.1V. Supercapacitors operated at room temperature can have life expectancies of several years compared to operating the capacitors at their maximum rated temperature. L1= Load life rating of the super capacitor (typically 1000 hours at rated temperature).
A maximum specific capacitance of 33 F g −1 at a current density of 4 A g −1 was observed at 200 °C for supercapacitors based on free-standing TPU/clay/RTIL electrolyte. Meanwhile, the power density of the supercapacitor at 200 °C increased almost by two orders of magnitude compared to that at room temperature .
Activated carbon fiber-based supercapacitors retained their room temperature capacitance when cooled from 100 °C and defrosted from −40 °C, demonstrating good repeatability and stability, although anomalies exist when using different electrodes.

As rechargeable batteries, lithium-ion batteries serve as power sources in various application systems. Temperature, as a critical factor, significantly impacts on the performance of lithium-ion batteries and also limits the application of lithium-ion batteries. Moreover, different temperature conditions result in different adverse effects.
