Skeleton Technologies, a European manufacturer of ultracapacitor technology, has completed Round A financing of €3.9 million ($5.4 million). The funds will be used to scale up production, for product development, and for sales and marketing efforts.

Skeleton Technologies manufactures SkelCap ultracapacitor cells, which are available in ranges from 250 F to 3500 F, as well as SkelMod modules. The company’s customer list includes the European Space Agency and several Tier 1 automotive suppliers.

“Our products have four times higher power density (80 kW/L), and almost double the energy density (14 Wh/L) compared to current industry standards,” says CEO Taavi Madiberk. “We enable our customers to excel in energy efficiency and electrical performance.”

The total planned investment will be €13.6 million.”
