GreenAngel Investee REV Technologies is Chosen by SAIC to Supply Vehicle-to-Grid Technologies to Major Contractors
(firmenpresse) - VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/17/11 -- GreenAngel Energy Corporation ("GreenAngel") (TSX VENTURE: GAE) reports that investee company REV Technologies Inc. ("REV" ) has been selected by SAIC to provide electric vehicle (EV) conversion technology and integrated vehicle to grid (V2G) and vehicle to site (V2S) networking solutions under the Aloha Micro Grid program for the U.S. Army's Tank and Automobile Research, Development and Engineering Center (TARDEC).
As the third contract awarded to REV by TARDEC, REV is to supply the U.S. Army with two more REV 300ACX V2G-capable electric vehicles for the project, for $US249 thousand, bringing the total to six vehicles. These state of the art electric vehicles all have built-in connectivity to REV's AutoGrid™ Network. The REV vehicles act as dynamic energy storage devices on the power grid, together acting as an extension of the power plant whenever they are plugged in. With REV's AutoGrid™ connected to TARDEC's military micro-grid, the network will demonstrate and validate various scenarios for energy efficiency including frequency regulation, spinning reserves, load shedding, peak shaving, and harnessing wind and solar energy.
Jay Giraud, founder and CEO of REV, comments, "Our unique capabilities in both electric vehicles and energy network technology help enable vehicle-to-grid. Together with SAIC we can meet the requirements that the Department of Defense has to increase national security by creating a virtual power plant from as many as 200,000 non-tactical electric vehicles by 2015. So demand is there, and we're prepared to scale quickly."
Michael Volker, Chairman of GreenAngel, comments, "This agreement is a great indicator of bigger things to come from REV as they grow and deepen their working relationship with SAIC and the TARDEC project for the US military."
