Founded in 2012, e-Zinc has developed a breakthrough zinc-air battery energy storage system which addresses the 10-100+ hour duration market in a cost-competitive manner. We provide the platform for the world’s energy markets to be fully powered by renewable energy, enabling a zero-carbon energy future. The technology stores energy through the creation of zinc as a metal, this approach decouples power from energy capacity, poses no risk of thermal runaway, and provides substantial flexibility to customers (kW to 100’s of MW).

e-Zinc’s technology addresses both behind-the-meter (BTM), and front-of-the-meter (FTM) utility-scale applications for a variety of technical use cases. The first-generation product has a strong economic value proposition for customers, including:

• Energy savings through demand management, peak shifting, and time-of-use arbitrage
• Resilience and back-up power for longer-duration power outages
• Sustainability and GHG reduction through diesel abatement and the pairing with solar

With the backing of globally renowned tech investors (Anzu Partners, Energy Foundry, BDC, and Toyota Ventures), e-Zinc has also been recognized with awards such as the 2023 Global Cleantech 100, Canada’s Clean 50, Breakthrough Energy Solutions Canada, and the AWS Clean Energy Accelerator Program.
