Long-duration storage technologies like Zaeras™ are becoming increasingly critical as global energy systems rapidly evolve towards higher renewable penetration. These systems enable reliable and cost-effective integration of intermittent renewable power by minimizing curtailment, bridging supply-demand gaps, and stabilizing grid operations. ABOUND’s Zaeras™ technology, leveraging zinc-air chemistry, offers inherent safety, freedom from fire or explosion hazards, and sustained capacity over an extensive lifecycle. Its modular design allows for cost-effective scaling of energy capacity by simply increasing the electrolyte volume, providing a flexible alternative to the fixed power-to-energy ratios of traditional lithium-ion or zinc hybrid batteries.
In a related development, ABOUND Energy recently confirmed the completion of the first tranche of its offering, issuing 5,520,950 Units for gross proceeds of $414,072. This financing further supports the company’s ongoing development initiatives. This strategic engagement with Coenda positions ABOUND to take a leading role in the transformation of the energy storage landscape, enhancing the integration and resiliency of green energy while stabilizing the grid.
