Aluminium-Air (Al-Air) Technology

Our Al-Air technology leverages Aluminium as an energy carrier. Aluminium, an abundantly available metal in India, is fully recyclable and reusable as an energy carrier with near 100% material recovery. Our Aluminium Air System is a well suited solution for India’s energy independence.

Aluminium-Air (Al-Air) Technology

Energy is stored

Electricity is injected into alumina in smelters

Energy is transported

Aluminium is shipped across the world

Energy is “Recycled”

Aluminium hydroxide is recycled back into alumina

Energy is generated

Our technology releases electricity contained in aluminium

The basic principle that enables Al-Air systems to produce energy is the combination of metal, oxygen, and water, oxygen being a key reactant for releasing energy from metal.

Transforming Indigenous Aluminium Into
Sustainable Clean Energy Source

Leave the Oxygen Tanks Behind, Simply Breathe

Conventional batteries carry oxygen in heavy electrodes and are heavier.

Using Phinergy’s proprietary Air-Electrode enables our metal-air systems to freely breathe oxygen from the air, making them significantly lighter.

The Al-Air technology enables aluminium to carry and release energy in clean and safe manner with an added versality to serve applications from EVs to energy backup for critical sites and much more. These batteries offer many advantages like higher range, energy density, safety, and longer life cycle among others. Reloading can take place in existing service networks (Fuel stations, Depots, etc.), avoiding expensive electric grid upgrades. The Aluminum-Air technology offers a promising solution for powering electric vehicles and for stationary applications with its high energy density and potential for low-cost production
