While their technology seems to have some nice advantages in storage of energy vs say batteres, it seems to have a hard sell to those who would want it. I really don't know how their systems stack up - cost wise - vs other things out there, like fuel cell technology.

Their most recent PR is about a delivery to Betchel of a system that MIGHT be part of a new All Electric Ship system. That is years away from production runs and just how many systems would there be anyway?

No real insight here. When they were part of SATC, that company seemed (and still continues, IMO) to count on gov'n grants to do basic research and advance technology. Not sure how much that type of thing has carried over here, but perhaps with the shrinking cash, the pace will slow even more.
