OUR TECHNOLOGY AIMS TO BRIDGE the gap between a zero-carbon future and reliable power
CLEAN POWER IN ANY CONDITIONS
COST-EFFECTIVE AND FLEXIBLE
Our long duration energy storage technology solves the intermittency challenge of the energy transition by decoupling power from energy, and removing the need for carbon-heavy fossil fuel energy sources. The simple and robust design of our solution is able to store multiple days of clean energy capacity and perform in the harshest environments.
The use of zinc in our energy storage technology is a paradigm shift for the industry and for the decarbonization agenda. The use of this globally abundant and recyclable material as the energy carrier, combined with the straightforward design of our cells, makes our solution cost effective, simple to operate, and most importantly – a reliable energy solution.
HOW IT WORKS
CHARGE
Zinc metal pellets are formed on the electrodes in the upper section of our battery cell while it is absorbing energy.
STORE
The zinc metal deposits are periodically wiped off from the charging electrodes and fall naturally through the electrolyte onto the discharging electrode, where they are stored until needed.
DELIVER
When discharging, air is injected into the cell, dissolving the zinc back into the electrolyte, which is then recirculated to the charging section, ready for the next charging cycle.

SIX DEGREES OF DIFFERENCE
Safe
Our system uses a water-based electrolyte which is non-flammable and has no risk of thermal runaway.
Affordable
Our technology decouples power from energy, allowing low-cost scaling of energy capacity.
Flexible and Scalable
We can customise system design to meet the power and energy needs of a particular market application.
Long Lifetime
Low degradation rate leads to long product life.
Full Depth of Discharge
Our storage system has 100% depth of discharge (DoD) allowing full capacity use.
Sustainable
Our technology is comprised of commodity materials, many of which are recyclable or reusable.
Market Applications
Resilience
Our long duration energy storage technology offers enhanced grid resilience, reliable backup power and cost savings. Additionally, its discharge capability can reduce energy costs through demand charge reduction and time-of-use shifting. It provides an affordable and dependable source of backup power during grid outages to ensure continued operations.
Remote
Our energy storage solution enables a shift away from costly fossil-based fuels for multi-day support of remote industries and communities. This can include applications such as telecommunications towers, mining sites/communities, military bases, islands, and developing countries.
RENEWABLES
Our technology is flexible and scalable to reduce strain on the electric grid caused by renewable energy variability, ensuring smooth grid operation. Our solution is designed to support the transformation of power systems – the Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES) global market will need to be1.5-2.5 TW by 2040 to support this transition, according to the LDES Council.
