I’m not sure that this is something that you could really do yourself, but the gist is that in supercapacitators, the portion that is typically made of graphene is replaced with nanosheets made of leftover hemp bast fibers. This medium has proven to not only be cheaper than the conventional model, but also more energy efficient.

Making hemp batteries is quite easy and straightforward. Start it by cooking fibers to achieve hydrothermal synthesis. Then, carbon nanosheets will be left. Build the resulting sheets into electrodes then add ionic liquid for electrolytes. Finally, it will create supercapacitors with a high energy density. Making these requires a lot of practice and start it by making small samples so materials will not be wasted.

This is a very complicated question that would require previous electrical engineering knowledge and build experience. What I can provide is stats concerning this topic. Hemp batteries have been found to outpower lithium-ion and graphene batteries, some studies showing that hemp batteries worked 8x better than current lithium-ion batteries.

Batteries are complicated and if you have to ask how to make one you probably shouldn’t try as it could be dangerous.

Yes, I would definitely consult someone more qualified like a scientist.
