Zenaji

We are an Australian company with a multi-disciplinary team of engineers, physicists and marketing sales people who have come together to design, manufacture and market the very best energy storage solutions.

Our Story...

In 2016 our engineers asked themselves – what is the best battery solution for solar or wind storage?

The hype around NMC (Nickel Manganese Cobalt) & LIPO (Lithium Iron Phosphate) batteries, the building of the mega factory by Tesla and Panasonic, the high energy density of LIPO batteries all pointed to them being an excellent solution for solar and wind storage. These batteries were being used in cars and cell phones so why not solar storage? Was there a better option?

Which Chemistry?

NMC & LIPO solutions cannot be deep discharged and have a cycle life of around 3000 cycles before they fall below the 70% threshold. Thus, they last about 8 to 10 years in a solar system assuming they are not used every day and their discharge is limited.

We searched for a better solution discovering LTO (Lithium Titanate) Batteries. The properties of these batteries is far superior to NMC & LIPO. They last longer, are safer, can be deep discharged and have better temperature tolerance. But they had two issues, they were not as energy dense as NMC & LIPO batteries and they were not manufactured in as great a quantity, so their cost was higher.

The answer... Lithium Titanate

Over the last three years, we have worked with LTO battery manufacturers and they have achieved remarkable results in both increasing energy density and reducing costs.

The result is we have developed the Zenaji AEON Battery solution. This product has a warranted 22,000 cycle life to 80% capacity (which is a least 6 times that of NMC & LIPO solutions), can be deep discharged to 100%, is scalable to meet varying demands and needs, is the safest solution on the market and does not require air conditioning.

A Better Solution

For homeowners, it means effectively they will not have to replace their Zenaji Aeon product as they will last at least 20 years and they can be sure they will get an economic return on their investment.

The Zenaji Aeon Battery is designed for residential use with a solar installation but our team will not stop there. New, large-scale solutions are planned for release in 2019 and beyond. We continue to work with a variety of battery companies to ensure we are at the leading edge of product development and the future looks very bright.
