GE Will Build an Advanced-Battery Plant
The new facility in Niskayuna, N.Y., will make sodium-based batteries for hybrid trains and other vehicles
By Reena Jana
General Electric (GE) said on May 11 that it would invest $100 million in a battery manufacturing plant in upstate New York, which will produce sodium-based batteries for hybrid trains and other vehicles. The venture, a new business for the company's GE Transportation unit, should bring in $500 million by 2015 and $1 billion a few years later, says Chief Executive Jeffrey Immelt.
The move promises to create 350 factory jobs as well as help stimulate the sluggish regional economy near GE's research and development headquarters in Niskayuna, N.Y., when the factory opens in mid-2011. GE has applied for economic-stimulus funding from the U.S. Energy Dept. to underwrite the effort. "A public-private partnership can help us accelerate this," says Immelt.
Mark Little, GE's director of global research, estimates that thousands of supply-chain, construction, and service jobs could also be created to support the plant. The factory will make batteries based on a proprietary sodium-and-nickel-chloride formula and tightly controlled manufacturing process that the company invented about five years ago. Little says GE has 30 patents on the technology, which stores energy produced when a vehicle brakes.
Stimulus Funds
The federal stimulus bill set aside $2 billion to support advanced battery technology. New York officials, from Governor David Patterson and U.S. Representative Paul Tonko, have pushed the GE plans. Tonko says that he worked with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other legislators to "stretch the language of the American Recovery & Reinvestment Act to make it technology neutral, so that it would also cover energy storage as well as energy generation" to assist GE. Energy generation, from solar cells to wind turbines, tends to grab more headlines.
So far, GE has invested $150 million in advanced battery R&D, says Immelt. The sodium-nickel-chloride battery will help power GE's first hybrid locomotive, scheduled to hit the market in 2010. The company hopes to target both existing and new customers not only in the rail industry, but also in mining and shipping.
These new batteries aren't suitable for automobiles, however. Car batteries must not only store energy, but provide quick acceleration. To supply that market, GE has invested about $70 million for a 10% stake in A123 Systems, a Watertown (Mass.) startup, which creates lithium batteries for electric plug-in cars.
Other multinationals are investing in advanced batteries for transportation as well. A subsidiary of Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway, MidAmerican Holdings, paid $230 million for a 10% stake in Chinese automaker BYD last fall with the aim of developing batteries for electric vehicles. BYD began selling a plug-in electric hybrid car that uses an iron-phosphate based battery late last year.
Part of a Wider Energy Push
Analyst Ron Pernick of Clean Edge, a San Francisco research firm that manages an index of green energy companies for Nasdaq, says that GE's high-profile investment in advanced batteries could inspire other companies to push into new energy-storage technology, not just energy-generation products. Both, Pernick says, are needed to meet the world's power needs.
He notes that GE aimed for $17 billion in sales of "eco-imagination," or green products, last year, and hit that goal. "They've set a good example of how companies can scale their ideas and see financial results."

a reminder for newbies ..past PR..AccessKey IP / TeknoCreations TekCases a Big Hit At Consumer Electronics Show -- Product Set for May Launch
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., Jan. 26, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The new TekCase product line, developed by AccessKey (Pink Sheets:AKYI) subsidiary TeknoCreations, was extremely well received by distributors and retailers at the 2009 Consumer Electronics Show ("CES") held in Las Vegas January 8th to 11th. The unveiling and demonstration of AccessKey's new product generated a lot of excitement amongst the company's current and potential distributors. The TekCase is not just a stylish case, which it is, but actually is a patent-pending premium line of cases for smart phones and gaming devices. Tech-savvy purchasers will seek its unique features because it is user friendly and will extend the battery life of these devices up to 2.5 times without recharging.
Mark Kasok, TeknoCreations Vice President of Sales and Marketing, stated, "Our distribution and retail partners are very excited about our new TekCase product line. They expressed particular enthusiasm over our new TekCase for the Nintendo DS lite that has the potential to overwhelmingly outsell our current InCharge products. Based on our meetings, we anticipate all our current online partners to carry the TekCases as well as quick placement of the DS lite TekCase into brick and mortar retailers shortly after we begin to ship. Our projected launch for the DS lite TekCase is May."
Kasok further stated, "Although the new TekCase line was the main topic in the meetings, there was plenty of excitement for our existing InCharge products for the Wii, XBox 360 and PS3, which sold out during the Holiday season. With additional inventory 'on the water,' we expect the demand to continue while adding etailers and retailers this year."

gamestop holiday sales surge, shares jump
By BARBARA ORTUTAY – 1 hour ago
NEW YORK (AP) — In what was a dismal holiday season for many store chains, video game retailer GameStop Corp. proved an exception.
The company said Thursday its sales for the November-December period jumped more than 22 percent, boosted by strong sales of new games. Same-store sales, or sales at stores open at least a year, grew 10.2 percent in the nine weeks between Nov. 2 and Jan. 3.
