January 28 (Renewables Now) - Zinc-air energy storage technology firm MGX Renewables Inc (CNSX:MGXR) is having a busy January, announcing a partnership with the New York Power Authority (NYPA) and a CAD-3-million (USD 2.3m/EUR 2m) private placement.
MGX, dba Zinc8 Energy Solutions, has been successful in the NYPA Innovation Challenge with a 100 kW/1 MWh zinc-air battery storage project. It will receive for it USD 2.55 million (EUR 2.3m) from NYPA over a period of three years.
