  1. Inside Zeno Power’s ‘test kitchen’ for nuclear batteries
    Researchers are fine-tuning a recipe at Zeno Power’s office-lab complex in Seattle’s South Lake Union district — but it’s not the kind of recipe you can taste-test. Instead, this recipe specifies the ingredients for a new kind of nuclear battery, and Zeno is hoping it’ll get a glowing revie

  2. At its #Seattle lab, #ZenoPower is analyzing different combinations of ingredients for a new type of radioisotope power system. You can think of the lab as a "test kitchen" for #nuclear batteries that could someday go to the bottom of the ocean or the surface of the moon. geekwire.com/2025/inside-zeno- #Space #Tech

  3. Zeno Power raises $50M to create nuclear batteries
    Zeno Power, a startup that’s headquartered in Seattle as well as Washington, D.C., today announced the completion of a $50 million funding round to boost the development of nuclear batteries for maritime and space applications.

    The Series B round was led by Hanaco Ventures, with participation from Seraphim, Balerion
