Phinergy is an Israeli clean energy company developing metal-air technology, turning metals – namely aluminum and zinc - into a new way to store, transport and generate clean and safe energy. Applications include energy backup for critical sites (as a replacement to lead-acid batteries or diesel generators), range extension for electric vehicles, or low-cost renewable energy storage. The company was founded in 2009 by Aviv Tzidon, currently Phinergy's Chairman. The company's CEO is David Mayer.

The company's technology originates at Bar Ilan University,[1] and has been further developed by Phinergy, turning the technology into products for various applications.

In February 2021, Phinergy completed an IPO at the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange.[2]

Strategic partnerships[edit]

In March 2021, Phinergy and Indian Oil formed a joint venture in India for collaboration in the sector of Al-air battery system.[3] This includes research and development, customization, assembly, manufacturing and sale of aluminium-air batteries for the Indian market, specifically electric vehicles.[4]
