Supercapacitor balancing

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ24640, BQ33100

Hi, I have to develop a board containing 44 supercapacitors of 500 Farad each, in order to get 22 cells ( 2 supercap connected in parallel) of 1000 Farad each and connected in series. The total capacitance will be about 45 Farad.

I'm looking for a way to balance all the capacitors and to perform a little bit of "management": check the supercapacitors state, the charge level and the temperature. 

Does anybody knows if there's a component which can be helpful? I think the bq33100 + bq24640 might be a good solution, but maybe you know if there's something best suited for my application.

Thanks a lot
