Future city transport will be autonomous, cost-efficient, with minimal grid impact and emission-free. This vision is taking shape, thanks to our Senior Electrical Engineer Tanel Sinijärv and Software Engineer Fred-Georg Pääro, the driving forces behind Skeleton's ground-breaking engineering R&D project—a supercapacitor-to-supercapacitor fast charging system designed for public transport vehicles.

In 2021, the Estonian Business and Innovation Agency provided essential support for our R&D initiative aimed at developing a supercapacitor-to-supercapacitor fast charging system. Our goal was to create an efficient and cost-effective charging system that could automatically power public transport vehicles within seconds, allowing them to operate seamlessly along their routes with the flexibility to charge at stops. Fast forward to September 2023 and we've achieved remarkable advancements, evolving our technology from a desktop prototype to demonstrator level.
