EEEI Introduces Gen-A-Sys Auxiliary Power Unit for Trucking Industry
DANBURY, CT–( EMWNews – April 2, 2008) – Electro Energy Inc. (
provider of advanced battery technologies and associated systems, will
introduce its Gen-A-Sys® anti-idling technology for the trucking industry
in a press conference today at its Danbury, CT headquarters. The
Gen-A-Sys® anti-idling solutions, jointly developed by Electro Energy and
Enertek Corporation, are the next generation in auxiliary power units for
long-haul and local delivery trucks. The Gen-A-Sys® products have been
installed on a vintage 1987 359 Peterbilt, which will be on view during the
press conference.
Representatives from Enertek and Electro Energy will demonstrate the
patent-pending Gen-A-Sys® systems which provide an all-electric source of
cab heating, cooling and hotel load power utilizing advanced battery
technology developed by Electro Energy. The Gen-A-Sys® +DC (daycab)
solution utilizes only batteries for the electrical power. The Gen-A-Sys®
Q, a hybrid battery-diesel generator solution, provides auxiliary power for
longer durations or heavier loads. The show truck is outfitted with both
systems.
Michael Reed, Electro Energy’s President and CEO, said, “Many states now
have commercial truck anti-idling regulations and as of January 1, 2008 any
Class 8 truck entering the State of California is required to have an
anti-idling system installed. The Gen-A-Sys® systems power the truck
hotel loads resulting in reduced exhaust emissions, noise and fuel expense
compared to idling the truck engine. Electro Energy’s advanced battery
technology reduces the weight of these systems enabling greater freight
loading and revenue potential for truck operators.”
Enertek co-principals Paul Baumann and Bruce Wingen began a nationwide
press tour promoting the Gen-A-Sys® system at the 2008 Mid-America Truck
Show in Louisville, Kentucky last week. They will continue the tour meeting
with media and industry representatives in Winston-Salem, NC; Bentonville,
AR; Houston, TX; Sacramento, CA and many other cities along the way ending
in Vancouver, British Columbia, on May 1, 2008. Additional detail is
