AUSTIN, Texas, Jan. 30, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Xtreme Power, a world leader in real-time power management and energy storage solutions, boasts its most successful quarter since its founding in 2004 with the completion of four new projects.

In the fourth quarter of 2012, the company reached ~77 MW commissioned and launched a new product line:

• Xtreme Power unveiled its newest product line, the RPM, for use in the PJM frequency regulation market alongside Invenergy's Grand Ridge Wind facility.

• Xtreme Power entered new territory in Alaska with a 3.0 MW system for Kodiak Electric Association.

• Xtreme Power installed two 1.5 MW systems for Kauai Island Utility Cooperative. The new systems are able to communicate with an existing system via a shared fiber optic cable. XP's total installed capacity on the island grid is now 4.5 MW.

The fourth quarter projects amount to over 43 MW alone.
