            Abstract : 
The given paper deals with uninterruptible power supplies utilizing supcrcapacitors (ultracapacitors) at the beginning of the work. Different kinds of power supplies, and today´s available energy storages are briefly described and compared. Various opportunities of supercapacitor implementation are discussed, pros and cons are compared and recommendations for further practical work given as well
