How the U.S. Navy is Making Electric Vehicle Batteries Better
19 Jun 2024 | Abstracted from Triple Pundit
"The United States Navy is assisting in the effort to shepherd alternative battery materials into the market, in collaboration with the U.S. zinc battery startup Enzinc.
"Enzinc's technology will enable zinc-based batteries that accept high-power charge and discharge as required by EVs. If successful, Enzinc's zinc-anode technology would reduce EV battery cost by more than 50%
"The zinc supply chain is more geographically diverse than lithium, and it is more abundant, and a relatively robust global zinc recycling industry is already in place."
