UQM Technologies Receives Additional Order From Carnegie Mellon for Two UQM(R) Generators to Provide Power for the 'Spinner' Hybrid Electric Unmanned Ground Combat Vehicle

Unique Mobility Inc (UQM) announced today that it has received an order for two UQMÂ® generators that will provide generated power for two additional "Spinner" hybrid electric unmanned ground combat vehicles being built by a team led by the National Robotics Engineering Consortium, a unit of Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute. The UQMÂ® generators will be integrated with a small diesel engine to generate the power required by the two additional unmanned ground combat vehicles (UGCV's) which are propelled by high torque wheel-mounted UQMÂ® propulsion motors.
