Abstract

A super capacitor (SC) and methods are disclosed, forming massive embedded capacitors connected in parallel over very wide radii varying from a few square feet to hundreds of square miles. The SC is enclosed within a water proof housing to keep out water by depositing a plurality of alternating layers of dielectric material between each conducting layer, whereby one or more electrodes are situated on each dielectric layer, and having at least one probe electrode exuding from said housing, and connected to the one or more electrodes, for receiving electric charge from a lightning source, for example. The dielectric layers separating each conducting layer may vary from a few layers to thousands, and possibly even millions or more layers, for example, to define a multilayer capacitive structure capable of providing electric power to supplement or replace other sources of electric power that harm the environment.
