That eco-unfriendly lithium-ion battery in your laptop may soon be on the way out. Silicon Valley based, ZPower, has developed a silver-zinc rechargeable battery technology that, unlike the ubiquitous lithium-ion battery, is composed of key components that can be recycled.
up to 30% more energy density than lithium-ion batteries (they last longer and charge faster)- laptop manufacturers can improve battery run-time or decrease the actual size of the battery
- non-toxic water-based technology will not vent or flame
- unlike lithium-ion batteries, ZPower batteries meet FAA travel guidelines
ZPower is featured at this year’s CES show in Las Vegas and was recently selected as a GoingGreen 100 Award Winner. Look for the battery to roll-out in products from a ‘major’ laptop manufacturer sometime this summer, while discussions with cellphone manufacturers are on-going.

Is ZPower a public traded company, and if so,what are the call letters?
Thank you.

ZPower is privately held. Intel and OnPoint are investors as well as Private Equity company PowerVentures.
If the battery is green as they claimed, do they have RoHS certification for their battery?
You’ll have to ask them.
