Introducing UCC
The Universal Current Collector (UCC) is an innovative current collector designed by Novac, with the aim of increasing the performance of any supercapacitor and battery.
The mass electrification process is constrained by
Specific performance: to achieve the desired energy and power levels, electric energy storage systems are often bulky and heavy.
Recharge speed: the most common active materials have a considerable reduction in capacity at high currents.
Costs: the integration of electric energy storage systems into vehicles can reach up to 35% of the total cost.
UCC is a drop-in solution for supercapacitors and batteries. Through improved utilization of the active material, UCC provides specific energy and power gains and ensures high capacitances even at high currents, ensuring a lower cost of the finished product.

How it's done
Metal foil
Thin metal substrate, available in copper and aluminium. Other metals can be evaluated with our development team
Glue
Its innovative formulation comprises electrically conductive species and binders to bind the metal foil to the conductive net
Conductive net
It supports the active material and offers low resistance to electric conduction through the volume of the coating, with performance improvement
Active material
UCC can be used with any kind of active material, for both batteries and supercapacitors
