The present disclosure provides an unmanned vehicle comprising a device to be powered; a capacitor energy storage system (CESS) and controller board for at least temporarily powering and operating the device to powered. Further, the CESS includes one or more metacapacitors as an energy storage medium. Additionally, the disclosure provides a capacitor energy storage cell composed of the at least one metacapacitor and a DC-voltage conversion device, where the output voltage of the metacapacitor is the input voltage of the DC-voltage conversion device. Still further, the CESS may be comprised of a module of said capacitor energy storage cells, or a system of modules of said capacitor energy storage cells. |
