Energy Storage

About

Musicproject is a renewable energy company specializing in Energy Storage.

The MUSIC Project is a European collaborative research initiative focused on developing disruptive sodium-ion capacitor (SIC) technology. The project addresses the need for energy storage solutions with energy density comparable to power batteries while maintaining rapid recharge capability (seconds) and extended cycle life (>100k cycles) with minimal efficiency loss. The technology targets gravimetric energy and power of at least 40 Wh/kg and 10 W/kg. A core principle is sustainability: the project explicitly avoids critical raw materials such as cobalt, nickel, and graphite, instead relying on sustainable-by-design materials including water-processable bio-derived polymeric binders, hard carbons, recycled carbon fibers, and amorphous carbons. The consortium comprises 11 members and 1 affiliate, including research institutions (CIC energiGUNE as coordinator, KIT, CNRS, Friedrich Schiller University Jena, Université Paul Sabatier Toulouse III, Nantes Université, IRT Jules Verne), technology partners (E-Lyte Innovations GmbH, UP Catalyst, Beyonder, BCARE MB), and industrial partners (Talgo). The project contributes to zero-polluting economy goals by enabling widespread renewable energy implementation and electrification of transport and industry.
