Through technical presentations and industry discussions, we look forward to connecting with customers, partners, and industry professionals to explore new applications and collaboration opportunities. ### 2026 Zinc Metal Roundtable | Nashville, USA Date: November 11–13, 2026 Venue: Renaissance Nashville Hotel, Nashville, Tennessee The Zinc Metal Roundtable brings together zinc industry stakeholders to discuss market developments, supply trends, and the outlook for 2027. On November 12, from 3:00 to 3:30 PM, Andrew Champagne, President of Gerchamp, will deliver a presentation titled “Nickel-Zinc Batteries: Safety Revolution.” Drawing on our battery R&D and manufacturing expertise, the presentation will explore the safety advantages of aqueous nickel-zinc technology and its potential in critical power applications, connecting developments in zinc materials with growing demand for safer battery solutions. ### Batteries Event Lyon 2026 | Lyon, France Date: November 16, 2026 Venue: Lyon Convention Centre, France Dr. Zijie Tang, General Manager of HuaZinc, a Gerchamp Group subsidiary, will present “High-Power Nickel-Zinc Batteries for Data Centres” during Spotlight Session 2: Zinc Batteries, from 2:40 to 3:00 PM. As AI workloads drive higher power densities in data centers, UPS backup systems must deliver high power, reliable performance, and enhanced safety within increasingly constrained spaces. Dr. Tang will introduce our [**nickel-zinc battery**](https://www.gerchamp.com/en-US/products/8xnfg90-nickel-zinc-battery) ([Agent MD](https://www.gerchamp.com/en-US/products/8xnfg90-nickel-zinc-battery/raw.md)) technology, highlighting its non-flammable aqueous electrolyte, no thermal runaway, discharge rates of up to 10C, and compact footprint compared with conventional lead-acid batteries. The presentation will also explore its advantages for short-duration UPS backup in AI data center applications. ### RE+ 2026 | Las Vegas, USA Date: November 17–19, 2026 Venue: Las Vegas Convention Center, North Hall Booth: N1375 Our team will be at Booth N1375 to meet with industry professionals and discuss energy storage, critical power infrastructure, and emerging opportunities in modular data centers. As demand grows for faster and more flexible AI infrastructure deployment, modular data centers are creating new requirements for reliable backup power, system integration, and scalable infrastructure. We welcome visitors to explore our nickel-zinc battery cabinets, self-developed BMS, and integrated power solutions, and discuss how these technologies can support new data center projects and existing facility upgrades. ### Connecting Technology, Industry, and Global Markets Together, these three events provide opportunities to engage with stakeholders across the zinc supply chain, battery technology, and critical power infrastructure markets. From nickel-zinc battery development and manufacturing to intelligent monitoring and integrated backup power systems, we continue to strengthen our capabilities and explore new opportunities for international collaboration. We look forward to meeting industry peers, customers, and partners in Nashville, Lyon, and Las Vegas this November. ## Related Solutions & Products - [Nickel-Zinc Battery](https://www.gerchamp.com/en-US/solutions/nickel-zinc-battery-for-data-center) ([Agent MD](https://www.gerchamp.com/en-US/solutions/nickel-zinc-battery-for-data-center/raw.md)) - Discover Gerchamp's Nickel Zinc battery solution for data centers and AI workloads, utilize intrinsic safe NiZn technology, deliver high-rate power with wide… - [GZC-9038S Nickel-Zinc Battery Cabinet](https://www.gerchamp.com/en-US/products/gzc-9038-s-nickel-zinc-battery-cabinet) ([Agent MD](https://www.gerchamp.com/en-US/products/gzc-9038-s-nickel-zinc-battery-cabinet/raw.md)) - Discover the GZC-9038S, the new-generation 10C Nickel-Zinc Battery Cabinet, featuring Gerchamp's proprietary NiZn technology, ideal for 15-minute UPS backup… - [8XNFG90](https://www.gerchamp.com/en-US/products/8xnfg90-nickel-zinc-battery) ([Agent MD](https://www.gerchamp.com/en-US/products/8xnfg90-nickel-zinc-battery/raw.md)) - Explore the 8XNFG90, Gerchamp's new-generation 10C nickel-zinc battery.
