I'm curious why a large capacitor or inductor cannot be used to provide momentary power for things like electric motor starts, and to smooth out events like a plane briefly occluding the sun.
I built an audio amplifier in college that had a couple of huge capacitors on the power supply (about the size of a can of soda). It would keep the amp running a few seconds after I shut off the power.
