[Capacitors and supercapacitors](https://www.materialinsights.org/energy/e_supercaps/) (energy) and [Graphite](https://www.materialinsights.org/commodities/graphite/) (commodity): 1 relationship.

## How they are linked

### 1. Price link: carbon materials

*Cost and price · Moderate · Both ways*

Capacitor electrodes are carbon materials, and the carbon and graphite products index is the nearest public carbon series. Monthly moves barely correlate, at 0.12, but yearly moves reach 0.47, which points to a shared industrial cycle rather than direct cost pass-through from one to the other.

- **0.12** monthly change correlation
- **0.47** 12-month change correlation
- **1.62** fitted elasticity
