A composite electrode includes a mixture of active matter (AM) particles and EC material particles generating an electronic conductivity, the mixture being supported by an electrical lead forming a DC current collector. The electrode can be manufactured by a method which consists of modifying the AM particles and the EC particles so as to react with each other and with the material of the collector in order to form covalent and electrostatic bonds between said particles, as well as between the particles and the current collector, and then placing the different constituents in contact.
