Altairnano Completes $750,000 Battery Packs

Altair Nanotechnologies Inc. of Reno, Nevada, has shipped ten rapid charge, high power NanoSafeT battery packs to Phoenix Motorcars Inc. Phoenix Motorcars confirmed that the shipments of ten 35KWh battery packs fulfilled and completed the $750,000 order it placed in July. The company has since placed an additional order for one 35KWh battery pack. Altairnano's battery packs allow the Phoenix sport utility truck and sport utility vehicle to exceed performance specifications for the State of California Type III Zero Emissions Vehicle. Altairnano provides nano-titanate based batteries that are used in two battery pack configurations: a 35KWh and a 70KWh NanoSafe pack. Both packs provide sufficient power and energy for a fleet vehicle to travel up to 130 or 250 miles, respectively, with a top speed of over 100 mph.
