1. A system for storing and distributing electric energy, the electric energy comprising pulsed energy, the system comprising:
one or more energy sources configured to store electric energy, the one or more energy sources comprising a supercapacitor;
one or more converters configured to distribute first electric energy among the energy sources and distribute second electric energy from the one or more energy sources to one or more entities;
interfaces coupled to the one or more energy sources, the one or more converters, and the one or more entities; and
a controller system comprising the one or more interfaces and a controller, the controller system further comprising:
one or more hardware processors; and
memory storing computer instructions, the computer instructions when executed by the one or more hardware processors configured to perform:
receiving a demand for the second electric energy from a particular entity, the demand indicating one or more electric characteristics of the second electric energy and one or more entity characteristics of the particular entity;
in response to receiving the demand, controlling the one or more converters to distribute the second electric energy from the one or more energy sources to the particular entity according to the one or more electric characteristics, the one or more entity characteristics, and one or more energy characteristics of the one or more energy sources;
determining an amount of available electric energy at the one or more energy sources; and
in response to determining that an amount of available electric energy at a particular energy source falls below a threshold, controlling the one or more converters and a different energy source to distribute the first electric energy from a different energy source to the particular energy source.
