Phinergy
Phinergy is an Israeli clean energy company developing metal-air battery technology using aluminum and zinc for energy backup, electric vehicle range extension, and renewable energy storage.
Visit WebsiteCompany Overview
Phinergy develops metal-air battery technology that turns aluminum and zinc into a new way to store, transport, and generate clean energy. The company's technology originates from research at Bar Ilan University and has been developed into commercial products for multiple applications.
Headquartered in Lod, Israel, Phinergy is listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE: PNRG). The company completed its IPO in February 2021. Phinergy has established strategic partnerships including a joint venture with Indian Oil Corporation for aluminum-air battery systems in the Indian market.
Phinergy's aluminum-air batteries offer significantly higher energy density than conventional lithium-ion batteries, enabling applications such as long-range EV extension (demonstrated 1,100+ mile range in testing), energy backup for critical infrastructure, and cost-effective renewable energy storage.
Dual-use relevance is significant: high energy density metal-air batteries are valuable for military vehicle electrification, portable power for dismounted soldiers, backup power for critical defense installations, and reducing logistics burden of fuel transportation in military operations.
