Orders Increase for Amberjac Projects
Amberjac Projects Announce new orders
(CSRwire) - September 3, 2008 - Amberjac Projects Ltd, a United Kingdom
company based in Lincolnshire, working in partnership with EnergyCS of
California, have received significant orders over the last month for
development and production battery systems across 5 projects in the
Electric Vehicle (EV), Plug in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) and Hybrid
Electric Vehicle (HEV) markets from the UK, Europe and the United States.
All of the systems on order are to be delivered from October to December
2008.
The size of batteries ordered range from 900Wh to over 50kWh.
Managing Director, Simon Sheldon said "For reasons of confidentiality we
cannot name the clients in question but we can reveal these are firm
received orders from niche players in the EV business and Automotive OEM's
clients." He also said "The current order book, and orders expected to be
received in the next month, will represent a 400% increase over our last
year's turnover in just the first 6 months of our financial year, a
significant increase in our activities and further recognition by major
players in this space that our solutions offer the highest levels of
capability. Amberjac Projects has the capability to give clients exactly
what they need rather than selling what we have, a unique approach. We
are starting to pull applications away and win business from competitors
using the standard module approach, which are mostly used as an easy "one
off" trial system and not practical for production. Often the vehicle
developer/manufacturer ends up with a load of battery modules he has to
wire up himself, causing multiple issues, we take that problem, and
headache, away completely."
Amberjac Projects solutions focus on custom designed and configured fully
integrated Lithium-Ion battery systems tailored to the individual
requirements of each application, offering a bolt in; plug in and drive
capability with no battery engineering required of the vehicle
manufacturer. No standard off the shelf solutions are used in the creation
of these battery systems and as a result Amberjac Projects have
demonstrated higher levels of on board energy storage than their
competitors and levels of integration within difficult packaging envelopes
not possible using a standard off the shelf module.
Simon also said "Working closely with our Lithium Iron Phosphate cell
manufacturers from the Far East and suppliers of new chemistries, an
extensive programme of testing has allowed us to understand the
performance characteristics of various cell formats on a fundamental level
and configure battery systems that actually deliver on claims. Being
independent of cell manufacturers is a huge advantage for us and allows us
to choose the right technology in the right format for each application, we
are not encumbered with one or two cell choices to capture all applications
that result in large compromises."
The new orders are in addition to the Prius PHEV conversion work carried
out by the company, orders for which are increasing and production is
being stepped up, currently systems are running around in UK, Holland,
Denmark and Iceland, with Holland a particular hotspot for demand.
As the company moves in to the volume production phase of its business
plan expansion plans will be activated to further increase our
capabilities, resources and invest to meet anticipated client demand
through the end of 2008, in to 2009 and beyond.
