PORTLAND, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec 11, 2025--

ZincFive®, the world leader in nickel-zinc (NiZn) battery-based solutions for immediate power applications, has been named a multi-category winner in the 2025 Power Technology Excellence Awards. The independent awards program, powered by GlobalData’s business intelligence, is one of the industry’s most widely recognized platforms honoring companies driving meaningful innovation in the global power sector. ZincFive won in four categories: Innovation, Product Launch, Safety, and Environmental Excellence.

This recognition highlights ZincFive’s continued leadership in delivering safe, sustainable, high-power solutions for mission-critical infrastructure. With nearly 2 gigawatts of NiZn systems deployed or contracted worldwide, ZincFive is helping operators meet the fast, steep demands of AI-driven data centers while improving resilience, footprint efficiency, and environmental performance.

ZincFive’s Immediate Power Solutions combine patented NiZn chemistry with intelligent system-level engineering to deliver rapid, millisecond-scale response to dynamic load swings, and stable operation at elevated temperatures. The company’s latest product, the BC 2 AI UPS Battery Cabinet, exemplifies this approach – providing both fast-load power support for GPU-intensive AI applications and traditional outage protection in a single cabinet, reducing the need for redundant layers of power-quality equipment and freeing valuable white space for additional compute.

ZincFive’s technology also advances customers’ sustainability goals through chemistry that is inherently safe and built from abundant, recyclable materials. With lifetime greenhouse gas emissions that are 25–50% lower than lead-acid or lithium-ion alternatives, NiZn supports a more responsible, circular approach to power infrastructure.

“This recognition reflects the thoughtful innovation and commitment to safety and sustainability that guide our work,” said Tod Higinbotham, CEO of ZincFive. “Meeting the demands of a rapidly changing infrastructure landscape requires a mindset of continuous improvement, and our team brings that mindset to every advancement we make. These awards affirm that approach and encourage us to keep raising the bar for our customers, our industry, and the planet.”

These awards add to ZincFive’s expanding recognition across the industry. The company was recently named to TIME's 2025 World's and America's Top GreenTech Companies lists and earned both 2024 Edison Award™ and CleanTech Breakthrough's 2024 Overall Innovation of the Year, among others.
