Better Read on EFL in NY
From N.Y. Governor's Site.
Interesting points. Much clearer than EFL's release. Indicates a manufacturing site, not R&D and with room for expansion!!! Secondly, plans to retrofit 600 hybrid vehicles to plug-in hybrids. Interesting to see in EFL will be involved in this too!!!!
In addition, the Governor announced that Electrovaya, a Canadian high-tech battery manufacturing firm, plans to expand Canadian operations into 5,000 square feet of manufacturing space at STEP, with additional expansion planned. The company’s lithium-ion batteries can be used in a variety of products and applications.
A new $10 million program to retrofit the 600 hybrid vehicles in the State fleet to be plug-in hybrids, which allows them to be plugged into the electric grid to boost mileage in excess of 100 miles per gallon while significantly reducing emissions of harmful pollutants. Once the State’s hybrid vehicles have been converted to plug-in hybrids, the program will be made available to private vehicle owners through a competitive process.
