Our Mission

To be the leading global provider of silver-zinc rechargeable battery technology for portable power applications.

Company Overview

ZPower is dedicated to innovating change in the field of battery technology. With its award-winning silver, zinc and water-based chemical makeup, ZPower offers a battery that delivers high performance while safely powering portable devices. The battery’s aqueous technology also creates an earth-friendly, recyclable product that reduces environmental impact.

In the area of performance, ZPower batteries offer an extremely high ratio of energy to volume (Wh/l) in applications such as notebook computers, cell phones, and consumer electronics. In fact, ZPower is the only rechargeable battery that beats lithium-ion in energy density for consumer applications. And, while lithium-ion technology is reaching a plateau, ZPower batteries have plenty of runway to increase both energy density and cycle life.

In addition to offering high-performance, ZPower batteries use an environmentally friendly chemistry that allows battery cells to be recycled and the contents reused. Unlike other traditional batteries, ZPower batteries have no heavy metals and no toxic chemicals. ZPower is also the first battery company to offer financial incentives to consumers who recycle their silver-zinc batteries.

Additionally, ZPower silver-zinc batteries have an intrinsically safe water-based chemistry that contains no lithium or flammable solvents. Unlike lithium-ion and lithium-polymer batteries, ZPower batteries are free from the problems of thermal runaway, fire, and danger of explosion. ZPower batteries are also free from the regulations that limit the size of lithium-containing batteries on airplanes.

ZPower possesses an impressive U.S. and worldwide intellectual property portfolio with 28 granted patents and 33 pending. The company has strategic partnerships with, and venture investments from, Intel™ Corporation, OnPoint™ Technologies (a venture capital fund of the United States Army) and PowerVentures (a large private equity group).
