Zincfive, nickel-zinc battery storage systems, wins ‘2021 top tier product’ award in mission critical magazine’s UPS systems category.
ZincFive, the world leader in nickel-zinc battery-based solutions for data centers announce its BC Series Battery Cabinet has won Mission Critical Magazine’s coveted 2021 ‘Top Tier Products’ Award in the UPS Systems category.
“The nickel-zinc technology could displace market share for lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries,” one of the judges said. “And the power density is an attractive feature.”
Reliability is key in mission-critical applications, A weak or depleted nickel-zinc cell, unlike lead-acid or lithium batteries, remains conductive, allowing the string to continue operating.

Tim Hysell, ZincFive’s CEO.
We’re thrilled to win the 2021 Top Tier Product Award in Mission Critical Magazine’s UPS Systems Category.
“The capability of nickel-zinc batteries is a paradigm shift in battery string reliability and uptime. This award is recognition of that.”
The power density of the nickel-zinc batteries used in the BC Series Battery Cabinets is also well-suited to large-scale energy storage, where delivering the smallest footprint per megawatt is important to the end-user.

High power density must be accompanied with safety in operation, and ZincFive has developed a high-power density battery that does not exhibit thermal runaway at the cell level based on the results of UL testing.
ZincFive’s BC Series Battery Cabinet innovates beyond the battery by designing the cabinets to be drop-in replacements for lead-acid battery-based backup systems. Users can utilize the BC Series without modification to their existing UPS.
“Previously, BESS users have had to compromise in one or more areas of performance, safety, or the environment when choosing energy storage solutions,” said Hysell.
“ZincFive’s BC Series Battery Cabinets minimize these compromises in BESS while bringing a disruptive battery technology in a turnkey solution to a large global market.”
Independent third-party analysis of end-to-end environmental impact shows nickel-zinc batteries to have a climate impact score significantly superior to lead-acid and lithium battery chemistries.
“This product appears to offer significant advantages with footprint and reliability over lead-acid and lithium-ion UPS battery solutions for new and retrofit applications,” said one of the judges. “In addition, the low environmental impact of the product may help end-users meet sustainability goals and green initiatives.”
Highlight:
- ZincFive’s BC Series Battery Cabinet is the first nickel-zinc battery energy storage system (BESS) with backward and forward compatibility with megawatt-class inverters.
