Hot on the heels of signing an exclusive distributor
agreement with 57-year veteran oil and gas production services and equipment
supplier, Oil and Gas Equipment, Inc. (which is focused on delivering a
soup-to-nuts capability for sector operators in Colorado, New Mexico and Utah),
developer of proprietary stored energy solutions and ultra-high precision
chemical injection pumps, Galenfeha, Inc., recently announced that the company
is now on track to become the nation’s top consumer of LiFePO4 (lithium iron
phosphate) chemistry. Given the continuing downturn in energy prices, oil and
gas sector operators are clamoring for ways to shore up efficiency, and whether
that comes in the form of the company’s revolutionary SCADA-controlled
(pneumatic and solar) chemical injection pump control platform, the iWaV, or
the company’s increasingly popular and extremely robust lineup of LiFePO4
batteries, GLFH is seeing mounting market penetration. In the battery arena
specifically, this trend now has the company poised to steal the top slot from
the only other company in the country with a bigger footprint in this
compelling battery chemistry.
This latest distributor agreement announcement follows up on
the exclusive distribution deal inked back in August with one of the most
trusted names in West Texas oilfield services, Control Equipment, Inc., a deal
which greatly expanded GLFH’s throughput in the Permian Basin. Sometime next
year, on the strength of continuingly positive sales of oilfield batteries and
increased penetration in other markets for the company’s lineup of patent
pending, microprocessor controlled LiFePO4 battery systems, such as the NEV
(neighborhood electric vehicle) and golf cart markets, Galenfeha will likely
become the biggest U.S. manufacturer doing lithium iron phosphate batteries.
Already hard at work on accessing new horizons for its range of batteries,
including testing units that are slated to capture sizeable share in the U.S.
military market, Galenfeha, with its extremely safe, yet lightweight lithium
iron phosphate battery technology, is now really starting to turn heads as a
provider of environmentally safe alternatives to lead-acid batteries. And these
are alternatives that come with significant performance advantages to boot.
The same superb thermal stability, long-lasting
electrochemical properties and superior energy density (compared to other
chemistries such as lithium-ion), which has won the company’s technology many
ardent fans in the oil and gas production game, has also set GLFH up for
success in other battery end markets. The company’s current lineup, consisting
of 30AH and 120AH (13.2V), 40AH and 120AH (12V), and a 12V mobile system (for
vehicle emergency starter applications, as well as for field charging mobile
phones or other electronic devices, and supplying continuous power for devices
such as laptops), is fast becoming the go to choice across a wide variety of
markets. Not only are these batteries an extremely attractive solution for
upgrading various traditional lead-acid battery systems, offering benefits such
as an absence of dangerous gases being generated during charging, the
proprietary onboard battery management system (BMS) developed by GLFH also
represents a significant cost-saving and logistical efficiency advantage. An
advantage which has made Galenfeha a rising star among consumers of the
technology.
The much lower self-discharge rate, lack of need for water
and a complete lack of sulfation on the batteries (as is common with
lead-acid), makes Galenfeha’s battery systems a no-brainer when it comes to
standalone applications where a (for instance) vehicle sits idle for an
extended period of time. This is a key advantage in applications such as golf
carts, which sit during the off-season for long periods of time, or for things
like range targeting systems in the military. The company’s proprietary BMS further
enhances this advantage by providing continuous monitoring of the system’s
operational parameters, such as current flow, voltage, and internal
temperatures during charging/discharging. The net benefit is a battery that not
only offers high energy density for direct power use due to the specific
capabilities of the company’s LiFePO4 chemistry, but which also lasts a lot
longer, thanks to continuous assurance that the battery is operating in a safe
state, and that the cells are being protected from overcharge or being
discharged too low, as well as optimally balanced, by the BMS.
The military market alone holds significant, untapped
potential for GLFH’s technology and an already strong footing in oilfield
services, combined with a growing presence in the golf cart/NEV space, makes
this extremely agile company a highly interesting target for savvy investors.
Galenfeha’s relatively small size and its established track record for
providing the kinds of problem solving and tight-knit working relationships needed
to master the military market, which is characterized by high demand for
tailored solutions and an increasing focus on energy savings/environmental
impact, make this company a share price-accessible vehicle for shareholders
looking to profit amid the ongoing shift towards greater energy efficiency
across the DOD’s entire landscape, as well as numerous sectors. And the company
is even positioned to compete with Tesla’s (NASDAQ: TSLA) Powerwall technology
for home backup power and main use energy cost efficiency, with an arguably
superior implementation of the same concept, based on the company’s LiFePO4
chemistry, instead of lithium-ion cells.
