UQM Technologies Announces Shift Into Production Phase

UQM adds full production capability after decades of advanced development work on energy-efficient electric motors, generators and power electronic controls for electric and hybrid vehicles.

LONGMONT, Colo. — Just a month after assuming the role of president and CEO of UQM Technologies Inc., Eric Ridenour will announce at the Piper Jaffray Sixth Annual Clean Technology & Renewables Conference that the company has added full-production capability for its energy-efficient electric motors, generators and power electronic controls for electric and hybrid vehicles.

“This expansion into full production capability marks an important achievement for UQM,” said Ridenour. “Companies that have counted on us for high-quality, pre-production development of electric motors and controllers can now seamlessly transition into volume production with UQM systems and components.”

Ridenour will present at the Piper Jaffray Sixth Annual Clean Technology & Renewables Conference at 4 p.m. EST on Wednesday, Jan. 12. The conference takes place at the Westin Hotel in Times Square, New York. Ridenour will provide details on the company’s increased range of capabilities during his presentation.

UQM Technologies manufactures power-dense, high-efficiency electric motors, generators and power electronic controllers for the automotive, aerospace, military and industrial markets. A major emphasis for UQM is developing products for the alternative-energy technologies sector, including propulsion systems for electric, hybrid electric, plug-in hybrid electric and fuel cell electric vehicles, under-the-hood power accessories and other vehicle auxiliaries.
