ZincFive

ZincFive, Inc. develops proprietary nickel-zinc battery storage technology to provide electricity for data centers and other applications. The company is based near Portland, Oregon, and sells its products globally.

History

ZincFive was created in 2016 when Ensite Power merged with PowerGenix. The combined entity has raised over $144M from a number of venture capital firms, including Helios Climate Ventures, Standard Investments, Senator Investment Group, and OGCI Climate Investments.
Since 2016 ZincFive has developed products based upon its nickel-zinc battery technology for data centers, transportation control, and industrial engine starting. Products traditionally developed for these markets are based on lead-acid or lithium ion technology; batteries based upon nickel-zinc technology potentially have improved performance with a lower environmental impact.
