Enzinc CEO and co-founder Michael Burz knows a thing or two about getting hard research off the ground. An aerospace engineer turned battery entrepreneur, he’s taken his company Enzinc from a research concept in a naval lab to one of the leading firms at the forefront of zinc-based energy storage.
In this episode of Aqueous Energy, Octet’s Onas Bolton and Emily Dickens join Michael from the Enzinc factory floor to discuss how the company is making zinc technology that’s competitive with lithium, and unlocking aqueous energy storage for applications from grid storage for the US Navy to urban mobility (including one very cool golf cart).
Watch this episode to learn:
- How Enzinc’s zinc sponge anode architecture eliminates dendrite growth entirely — enabling over 1,000 full-depth cycles without additives, coatings, or mechanical systems.
- How Enzinc runs manufacturing and R&D simultaneously to massively compress development timescales.
- Why lead-acid is just the start of the industries that Enzinc’s cathode-agnostic platform is poised to transform.
…and much more.Â
