Electrochemical charge storage of physically and chemically activated carbon synthesized from oil palm kernel shell (PKS) in three different aqueous electrolytes (1M H2SO4, 1M Na2SO4 and 6M KOH) are presented. Coin type CR2032 cells fabricated using the PKS ACs electrodes separated by fiber glass separator and electrolyte are used as devices for measurements. Achievable operating potential for these devices varied as H2SO4 (1.0V)
