Elastance is a physical quantity representing the resistance of a component to storing charge. It has units of [current]-2[mass][length]2[time]-4.

The ideal circuit element possessing only elastance is called the capacitor, typically measured by its capacitance rather than elastance. Elastance is related to the voltage and charge by .
