Acumentrics Opens New Canadian Office with former Staff from Fuel Cell Technologies, Ltd.
WESTWOOD, Massachusetts, May 18, 2007 – Acumentrics Corporation (http://www.acumentrics.com), a leading manufacturer of solid oxide fuel cells and rugged uninterruptible power supplies, today announced the formation of Acumentrics Canada Ltd. To create the new entity, Acumentrics acquired assets and hired employees of Fuel Cell Technologies Ltd. of Kingston, Ontario, a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) system developer.
“We are extremely pleased to have added this experienced, Canadian team to our growing fuel cell effort,” said Gary Simon, CEO of Acumentrics. “They have a distinguished track record.”
“We are glad to keep our clean energy expertise in Canada,” said Gary Allen, Director of Sales for Acumentrics Canada, Ltd. “Acumentrics’ tubular SOFCs, combined with our system expertise, will allow us to provide high quality products at lower cost to our customers.”
Ontario is considered to be a hotbed of fuel cell activity. The Queen’s-RMC Fuel Cell Research Center (FCRC) is also located in Kingston. When Fuel Cell Technology became available, Acumentrics saw an opportunity to be a part of Canada’s renewable energy efforts. Acumentrics Canada Ltd. will focus on engineering new fuel cell products for the home, military, and commercial markets, and on expanding sales throughout North America, Europe, and Japan. New offices are headquartered at:
Acumentrics Canada, Ltd.
706 Fortune Crescent
Kingston, ON K7P2T3
