Corporate Overview
Electro Energy Inc. (EEI)
(OTCBB:EEEI.OB) is an engineering, technology and
manufacturing organization, dedicated
to meeting customer needs with advanced battery technologies
and associated systems.
EEI was founded in 1992 to
focus on development and commercialization of a
patented concept for a bipolar
nickel-metal hydride rechargeable battery (BP Ni-MH).
EEI technology provides superior performance in
energy capacity, size and weight vs competitors. EEI has
developed and owns both the patented design of
BP Ni-MH batteries and the patented production process
for their manufacture.
EEI has produced and delivered
prototype BP Ni-MH batteries for the U.S. Army (field radios
and silent
watch applications), NASA (satellites), Partnership
for a New Generation Vehicle (hybrid vehicles),
NAVAIR and U.S. Air Force (F-18 and F-16 aircraft),
National
Institute of Health (NIH) (heart assist pumps),
and the Department of Energy (distributed energy
and
power quality).
EEI also produces Super Ni-Cd
batteries for mission critical applications in U.S. Government
satellite
systems, and military aircraft such as the
B-52, B-1, and Cobra Helicopters.
EEI has over 70 employees
at two locations, Danbury Connecticut and Colorado Springs,
Colorado.
EEI
holds seven U.S. and three foreign patents,
with additional
worldwide filings in process.
EEI has been funded since inception with
limited venture capital from its founder
and one other
investor. The primary source of funds has
been research contracts
with the US government totaling over $18M.
EEI recently raised approximately $3.0M through
a private placement,
coincident
with a reverse merger making EEI a publicly
traded company. EEI plans to use the proceeds
of the
private placement to develop commercial production
capacity
for its BP Ni-MN products.
