Adds advisor to the Board of Directors for the New York market
Zinc8 Energy Solutions Inc. ("Zinc8" or the "Company") (CSE:ZAIR) (OTC:ZAIRF) (FSE:0E9) is pleased to announce the engagement of Ramboll Americas Engineering Solutions Inc. ("Ramboll") to investigate potential manufacturing sites in the state of New York. Additionally, Zinc8 has engaged Robert F. Parker as an advisor to the Board of Directors for the New York market.
Ramboll will provide engineering consulting services in support of the evaluation of three potential sites in the state of New York which were identified through the coordinated efforts of Zinc8 and Empire State Development ("ESD"). Based on specific project requirements outlined by Zinc8, Ramboll's scope of services include site-related information compilation, identification of permits and approvals, preliminary code review, "red flag" analysis and recommendations.
"The state of New York is one of the most ambitious states when it comes to the reduction of greenhouse gas ("GHG") emissions as exemplified by New York City's Local Law 97," stated Mark Baggio, VP Business Development for Zinc8 Energy Solutions Inc. "Under Local Law 97, buildings with 25,000+ square feet of space will be required to meet new energy efficiency and GHG emissions starting in 2024. This represents a significant market opportunity for Zinc8's zinc-air energy storage systems. We have built strong relationships with government agencies, incubators and private sector partners in New York. Between these relationships and the regulatory backdrop, the need to explore potential manufacturing opportunities in the state was evident to us."
Mr. Robert. F. Parker has 25 years of experience in leadership, management, capital markets, and creating sustainable growth at public & private, non-profit, and government clients. Mr. Parker is a Director at Sif Capital Advisors and an Innovation Advisor to NYSERDA. Since 2005, he has focused on the ClimateTech sector, working as an entrepreneur, executive, banker, policy advisor, project developer, consultant, and investor. Robert's ClimateTech sector experience spans: Solar / PV; Energy Storage / Battery; CarbonTech; Smart Grid, Monitoring & Energy Efficiency; Waste Energy; Heat-to-Power; Thermal Efficiency; Geothermal; Thermal Efficiency; AgTech & FoodTech; Smart Water; Policy, Energy Insurance & Risk Products; and Smart Water. Mr. Parker has advised more than 100 technology companies and helped raise nearly $500 Million for start-ups and Cleantech projects - with significant experience supporting cross-border expansion and renewable energy project development.
Zinc8 Energy Solutions focuses on developing and commercializing its low-cost, long duration ZESS for utilities, microgrid, and Commercial & Industrial markets. By using the patented ZESS as a standalone or an enabling technology, it allows opportunities for peak demand reduction, time-of-use arbitrage, and participation in both the value stacking programs and the distributed long-duration energy storage space, all in conjunction with the opportunity for a significant reduction in carbon footprint. The long duration (8-100+ hours) ZESS has no fire and explosion risk, has no capacity fade over extensive lifetime, and offers complete charge operational flexibility.

More about the Zinc8 Energy Storage System (ESS)
The Zinc8 ESS is a modular Energy Storage System designed to deliver power in the range 20kW - 50MW with capacity of 8 hours of storage duration or higher. With the advantage of rechargeable zinc-air flow battery technology, the system can be configured to support a wide range of long-duration applications for microgrids and utilities. Since the energy storage capacity of the system is determined only by the size of the zinc storage tank, a very cost-effective and scalable solution now exists as an alternative to the fixed power/energy ratio of the lithium-ion battery.
Technology
The Zinc8 ESS is based upon unique patented zinc-air battery technology. Energy is stored in the form of zinc particles, similar in size to grains of sand. When the system is delivering power, the zinc particles are combined with oxygen drawn from the surrounding air. When the system is recharging, zinc particles are regenerated, and oxygen is returned to the surrounding air.
Applications
The flexibility of the Zinc8 ESS enables it to service a wide range of applications. Typical examples include:
Architecture
The Zinc8 ESS is designed according to a modular architecture that enables a wide variety of system configurations to be created from a small number of common subsystems. Each subsystem implements a single element of the technology:
