  • United Capital Consultants, Inc. (UCC) operates as a specialized consultancy focused on the renewable energy sector, with a primary emphasis on project development and asset management. The company's corporate journey began when it was incorporated as Thicket Sound Acquisition Corporation on December 7, 2016, in Delaware. A significant transformation occurred in April 2018 when a change of control led to a new shareholder structure, a new officer and director, and a name change to United Capital Consultants, Inc. This strategic pivot refocused the company's business model exclusively on the energy sector.The company's core business revolves around identifying, developing, and managing renewable energy assets, initially targeting opportunities in Southeast Asia where its management team has cultivated strong governmental and business relationships. UCC's strategy involves creating a renewable energy fund, for which it has engaged a Wall Street investment bank, to acquire operational assets. The company generates revenue through management fees for overseeing these assets for investors. A key part of its operational strategy includes forming strategic partnerships with regional developers to build a robust project pipeline, which reportedly includes hundreds of millions of dollars in renewable energy assets with long-term, government-backed revenues. For instance, on August 31, 2021, UCC entered into a consulting agreement with Energy Zero Solutions LLC to provide services for solar energy projects.The management team is a central component of UCC's value proposition. The team possesses a diverse background in engineering, finance, technology, and construction, with experience in large-scale government and private development projects. His fluency in several Southeast Asian languages has been instrumental in building the company's regional project pipeline. The broader management team includes individuals with extensive experience in project management for utility-scale solar projects, finance and accounting for large firms, and high-level government relations within the energy sector in Southeast Asia.

  • Urbix, Inc. is an advanced materials company specializing in processing natural graphite into battery-grade anode material for the electric vehicle and energy storage industries. The company has developed a proprietary method for purifying and processing graphite that is more environmentally sustainable and cost-effective than traditional techniques. Urbix's process uses a low-temperature, non-oxidative technique that avoids the use of toxic hydrofluoric (HF) and hydrochloric (HCL) acids, which are common in conventional graphite purification. This method reportedly consumes 90% less energy and results in significantly higher recovery yields of over 70%, compared to the 30-45% standard in the industry. Urbix's primary product is Coated Spherical Purified Graphite (CSPG), a critical anode material for lithium-ion batteries. The company's business model is centered on B2B transactions with battery manufacturers and automotive OEMs, establishing long-term agreements for a steady supply of high-quality graphite. Its clients are primarily located in North America and Europe. Urbix has established key partnerships, including a joint development agreement with South Korean battery maker SK On to develop customized anode materials for its American gigafactories. To secure its supply chain, Urbix has a strategic partnership with Appian Capital Advisory, which provides a consistent feed of natural graphite concentrate from its Brazilian producer, Graphcoa. This collaboration aims to create a fully integrated and secure graphite anode supply chain in the Americas, reducing the global reliance on China, which currently processes nearly all CSPG. The company has been selected by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for negotiations for an award of up to $125 million to construct a commercial-scale graphite processing facility in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. This facility is expected to produce approximately 10,000 tonnes of CSPG annually.
