Device (200) for supplying power to a motor vehicle, in particular a car or a motorcycle, with a plurality of electrochemical storage cells (101 to 110) and / or double-layer capacitors, wherein at least one of the electrodes arranged in the storage cells (101 to 110) and / or double-layer capacitors is made of
metal or is entirely covered with a
metal layer, and the
metal electrode or the metal layer, in particular a
metal foil, is electrically connected via a connecting element to a terminal (111 to 120, 121 to 130) provided outside the
storage cell (101 to 110) or outside the double-layer
capacitor, wherein a thermally conductive cooling plate (201, 202) is provided which is in
thermal contact with the terminals (111 to 120, 121 to 130) of the storage cells (101 to 110) or double-layer capacitors, and the cooling plate (201,202) dissipates the
heat energy supplied by the
metal electrodes or the metal
layers of the electrodes to the terminal (111 to 120, 121 to 130) via the connection element, , wherein the cooling plate (201, 202) comprises a heat-conducting metal and an electrically insulating, heat-conducting layer (203, 204, 205) is provided between the cooling plate (201, 202) and the terminals (111 to 120, 121 to 130), characterized by the fact that the heat-conducting layer (203, 204, 205) is formed from one or more heat-conducting foils (203, 204, 205) arranged one above the other.
