In an industry where every second of uptime matters, ZincFive® is once again earning recognition for helping shape the future of mission-critical power. The company has been named to TIME’s World’s Top GreenTech Companies 2026 list, marking its second consecutive year on the global ranking and underscoring the growing relevance of nickel-zinc technology in today’s power landscape.
The recognition arrives at a moment when data centers, AI infrastructure, and other high-demand environments are under pressure to deliver more power with fewer trade-offs. That is exactly where ZincFive has made its mark. Built around patented nickel-zinc (NiZn) battery technology, the company’s solutions are designed for immediate power applications that demand high performance, compact design, and inherent safety.
TIME and Statista evaluated more than 8,300 companies before selecting just 250 for inclusion on the 2026 list, making the recognition especially meaningful. Companies were judged on environmental impact, financial strength, and innovation drive – criteria that reflect not only what a company makes, but how it contributes to advancing the broader GreenTech sector. For ZincFive, the honor highlights the broader shift underway in power infrastructure: Sustainability is no longer a side note, but a core requirement.
As AI workloads continue to drive greater power density inside data centers, operators face increasing pressure to deploy solutions that deliver reliable performance without introducing additional safety risks or environmental concerns. Traditional battery technologies often require trade-offs between footprint, safety, sustainability, and performance.
Tod Higinbotham, CEO of ZincFive, said being named among the World’s Top GreenTech Companies “reinforces our belief that the future of power infrastructure requires solutions that are both high performing and sustainable.” He added that as AI-era infrastructure places unprecedented demands on power systems, the recognition reflects a broader industry shift toward safer, more sustainable energy storage and validates the role nickel-zinc technology is playing in delivering performance without compromise.
What makes ZincFive stand out is not just the chemistry, but the philosophy behind it. The company’s systems are engineered to combine high power density, reliable operation, and a more sustainable footprint in one compact solution. For customers navigating the future of data center power, that combination offers a compelling path forward. Designed for today’s most demanding environments, ZincFive’s nickel-zinc technology delivers reliable operation without the safety and environmental tradeoffs associated with traditional battery chemistries.
As the GreenTech landscape continues to evolve, ZincFive’s place on TIME’s 2026 list reflects more than a single achievement. While the award highlights ZincFive’s continued growth and innovation, it also points to broader changes taking place across the power infrastructure industry. It signals the company’s continued role in shaping safer, smarter, and more sustainable power solutions for the world’s most demanding environments.
