European Commission finances commercialization of zinc-ion batteries

Enerpoly has received €1.63 million EIC Horizon 2020 "Green Deal" grant from the European Innovation Council. The funds will be used to scale our lab-developed zinc-ion batteries for the growing stationary energy storage market, marking a significant step towards commercialization.

STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN: SEPTEMBER 2020 – Enerpoly has received a development grant from the European Innovation Council (EIC) Horizon 2020 Accelerator 'Green Deal' programme. The €1.63 million in grant funding received will fund technology scale-up to commercial-sized rechargeable zinc-ion battery cells. This involves demonstration of a manufacturing process that is suitable for commercialization. Enerpoly plans to grow the team in the coming months to fulfill these objectives. Customer needs and international markets for zinc-ion rechargeable battery technology are also explored in the scope of this project.

“We are very happy and excited to have received this grant from the European Innovation Council. The focus of the grant on 'Green Deal' suits Enerpoly perfectly to be a part of the solution on societal and environmental challenges. We believe that zinc-ion batteries have a bright future in stationary energy storage and will contribute to the European Green Deal strategy. We will now focus our efforts to build our industrial lab with the mission to commercialize our technology.” - Dr. Samer Nameer, Co-Founder and Chief Innovation Officer (CINO) of Enerpoly.

Renewable power generation is expected to dominate the electricity grid by 2030. Stationary energy storage must increase at least 17-fold to support the performance, stability, and reliability of a grid powered by renewables. The primary barrier to 100% sustainable energy is the high costs of rechargeable energy storage.

Enerpoly has developed an affordable, safe, rechargeable zinc-ion battery technology made of available and inexpensive materials with a well-established recycling infrastructure.  Enerpoly’s cost-efficient energy storage solution can meet the 2030 global cost targets today by saving on cell component costs and manufacturing processes.  Enerpoly envisions enabling sustainable energy on a global scale by delivering safe, environmentally friendly, and affordable energy storage innovations.
