ZEBRA – Integrating Sustainable Zinc-Ion Batteries into Future Energy Storage Systems
ZEBRA is a research and innovation project developing next-generation stationary energy storage solutions based on sustainable, water-based zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) as an alternative to lithium-ion battery (LiB) technologies. The project addresses the entire value chain – from materials development and battery production to system integration and operation in real-world environments.
The overarching aim of the project is to enable reliable, cost-effective, and sustainable energy storage to support the transition towards a more flexible and stable energy system. By developing and demonstrating zinc-ion batteries in stationary energy storage systems (SESS), ZEBRA lays the groundwork for increased utilisation of renewable energy sources.

Project Partners: Chalmers University of Technology, Department of Industrial and Materials Science; Mattr Collective AB, Gothenburg; Chalmers Industriteknik.
The project is funded by the Swedish Energy Agency and runs from 2025 to 2028.
AI-Driven Modeling and Degradation of Biodegradable Polymers in Nordic Climate Conditions
In Nordic climates, even biodegradable bioplastics can persist in soil for long periods or degrade incompletely into microplastics. This project develops AI‑based models that, usin…
