Following this trend of aggressively pursuing perceived advantages, A123 once
again re-assessed it’s focus towards the end of 2008, and quickly began its
transition from a company earned revenue primarily from consumer market
driven industries (76% in 2008) to obtaining a larger percentage in revenue from
transport-related industries (70% in 2009) and the HEV (Hybrid-Electric
Vehicles), PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid-Electric Vehicles), and EV (Electric Vehicles)
market.
