SatCon Technology provides innovative critical power products that enable reliable, affordable and clean solutions for electrical power needs. Building on its history as a developer of sophisticated and precise power management and control equipment, SatCon develops products that address the enormous demand for reliable power — from large-scale commercial and industrial applications, such as factory automation, to the computational and communication requirements of computers to the complex electronics of defense systems.

SatCon's products enable high quality, reliable power systems that:

  • Deliver uninterruptible power for businesses, factories and criticalapplications;
  • Increase throughput and reduce down-time, often lowering manufacturingcosts; and
  • Transfer data at the speeds required for today's economy.

The company's critical power products, such as digital controllers and power conversion systems, are used in multiple applications, including power quality, manufacturing, factory automation, aircraft, satellite, telecommunications, silicon wafer manufacturing, automotive and distributed power generation systems.

SatCon is positioned to capitalize on several converging trends that are driving the demand for highly reliable electrical power:

  • A growing need for "always on" electric power in an environment that relies on faster more accurate data processing.
  • An aging electrical grid system, exacerbated by limited investments to upgrade the existing infrastructure, that can no longer meet power capacity and reliability demands;
  • Utility deregulation that has created a free market, encourating the development of distributed power, moving market share into the hands of local producers from centralized power plants and monopoly service providers;
  • Tougher environmental regulations, along with increasing community restrictions on building new power plants to limit pollution, is mandating new technological solutions.

SatCon is a powerful investment opportunity for these reasons:

  • Products address an estimated $50 billion energy technology market: Satcon's digital power controllers are the enabling technology for highly reliable uninterruptible power supplies and alternative energy and distributed power generation systems.
  • Product and market flexibility: SatCon's products and systems convert, condition and manage electricity, providing solutions regardless of the power generation system employed.
  • SatCon's ability to transition technology into products: With over 120 patents, SatCon is successfully transitioning key technologies into commercial viable distributed power generation and power quality products.
  • Successful acquisition strategy: SatCon has successfully acquired several companies and integrated the key technologies, products, manufacturing capabilities and personnel, therby strengthening its product offerings, intellectual property and global sales, distribution and service networks.
  • Strong management team: SatCon is led by a seasoned management team with proven industry, product and operational experience.
  • Attractive market valuation: Given SatCon's product offerings and potential growth, the stock trades at a relatively low market value.
