I've actually got my fingers crossed that this signals a much larger order. We know for a fact now that FedEx was the customer for whom Wrightspeed *completed* successful trials last summer. It's been six months now since that news was leaked, but they wouldn't divulge who the customer was, saying it was up to them to release that info. Note that this PR is from Wrightspeed though. It's difficult to avoid the assumption that FedEx is about to announce a significant addition to their green fleet. Whenever they've added any other EV or hybrid over the last few years they've rolled out at least a couple dozen at a time. They long ago made public their plans to add significantly to their green fleet. The claims Wrightspeed is making reflect a vehicle that is more green and has a potentially quicker payback and better ROI than any other EV platform FedEx has been running to date. Wrightspeed has said repeatedly they expect to be profitable in 2015. Everything I can see points to this being a very significant development for Captstone Turbine Corporation.
