Abstract: The paper describes the possible sources of electrical energy for military purposes, deals with the necessity of electrical energy accumulation and gives brief analysis of different types of energy buffers, namely electrolytic capacitors, accumulators (batteries) and supercapacitors. Dynamical properties of developed electrical energy generation set with the variable speed-constant frequency technology have been analysed with respect to the effect of sudden extreme load increase. At low speeds the driving engine is overloaded and generator is not able to deliver sufficient peak energy. Supercapacitor as the controlled energy buffer in cooperation with respective DC/DC bi-directional converter and AC/DC/AC combined converter solves the problem. Results of measurements and verification of reliable system operation proving the credibility of performed analyses and calculations are discussed in the paper conclusions.
