TuscanTech, innovative start-up incubated at the Navacchio Techno Park (Pisa), won the prestigious European SME-Instrument Phase 1 grant with its “TT-Battery project” and will receive € 50,000 for the development of a technical-economic feasibility study of its innovation initiative, focused on the production of a zinc-manganese rechargeable battery characterized by low environmental impact, low costs and high performance. SME-Instrument is an acceleration tool for small and medium-sized enterprises promoted by the European Union that finances the most promising technological innovations. Only 7 out of 100 companies are supported with this tool and TuscanTech was immediately welcomed into this small elite, thanks also to the collaboration with the consulting firm New Ideas 4.0. The start-up then is going to participate in the second phase, through which it will try to obtain a grant of up to 2.5 million € to industrialize its innovative battery dedicated to stationary energy storage.
