Actually there is already work going to implement super capacitors even up to
the point of powering cars. They are more durable and generally less toxic in
terms of materials.
A 1 Farad capacitor (two in series) served as the battery backup in Panasonic
VCR's as long ago as 1984.
You would need a LOT of 1 Farad capacitors to do useful work, but super
capacitor technology is moving at a fast pace.
