http://www.nuvation.com/blog/careers/job/senior-npi-new-product-introduction-engineer This posting is very similar to Electrovaya's a while ago, it makes me wonder if they had issues with the process of designing their forklift batteries and have gone to an experienced company for help. It could explain the lost project they alluded to in the german article. This company also would be faster to production. http://www.nuvation.com/manufacturing After all this was a new product for them and is probably complicated, there are many experienced suppliers in the forklift battery field they are competing against. Hopefully this would mean there are interested companies still waiting for a more polished product. Just conjecture but sure seems like a coincidence.
