Montana Company Licenses Lawrence Livermore Zinc Air Fuel Cell Technology

Green Car Congress

In a 1995 paper, Cooper noted that the cost of the recovery unit is small compared with the cost of the battery because it operates continuously and hence at a lower power level than the battery. In addition, it lacks the expensive air electrode of the zinc/air battery, adding to the lower cost of the ZAFC solution.
