The energy Uof a capacitor that has charge Qon it and voltage V across it, is then the sum of such increments. In the limit of innitesimal increments, this sum converts into an integral.

Figure 19.6.2 19.6. 2: (a) Capacitors in parallel. Each is connected directly to the voltage source just as if it were all alone, and so the total capacitance in parallel is just the sum of the individual capacitances. (b) The equivalent capacitor has a larger plate area and can therefore hold more charge than the individual capacitors.
When several capacitors are connected in a series combination, the reciprocal of the equivalent capacitance is the sum of the reciprocals of the individual capacitances. When several capacitors are connected in a parallel combination, the equivalent capacitance is the sum of the individual capacitances.
