Power Efficiency Corp has completed a successful test of its Power Genius product on a metal stamping press at Check-Mate Industries.
The newly completed units are being sent to major original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).
These OEMs are evaluating the units for inclusion as a standard component to improve the efficiency of their electric motors that power their products.
"OEMs are looking for ways to make their products more efficient and green, and many of these OEMs have been expecting these controllers", said Steven Strasser, Power Efficiency Corporation's Chairman and CEO.
"These OEMs have the potential to purchase tens of thousands of motor efficiency controllers per year, representing tens of millions of dollars in potential revenue".
"After testing by the OEMs, we expect to enter into price and quantity negotiations".
The digital motor efficiency controllers have passed all tests for Canadian Standards Association (CSA) and Underwriter Laboratories (UL) certification.
The company also filed a utility patent in the US on its core energy saving technology and made an international patent application under the Patent co-operation Treaty.
This technology is being branded Esave Technology and the company has filed for a trademark on the name.
Strasser continued, "This utility patent and the Esave Technology brand are cornerstones to the future of our business".
"We plan to incorporate the Esave Technology brand in licensing and private label agreements as the mark for its technology, so third-party products will have 'Esave Inside'".
