Boston, MA 10/08/2014 (wallstreetpr) – Investors are considering panning out investments on Energy Focus Inc (NASDAQ:EFOI), soon after it barged into the daily news, with a revelation that the top notch LED lighting solutions provider, received a contract of $7.9 million from the US Navy.

Energy Focus’ Intellitube Contract

This is the second competently large order, in less than a month’s time. The order is deemed to be delivered within the first two quarters in FY 2015. It has been the first time in EFOI’s history that it has notched up a contract surpassing $7.7 billion in the month of September. The subsequent order received from the US Navy is focused on manufacturing Intellitube LED retrofit-tubes in order to serve the military’s purpose.

Target For The Order

The basis for this order lies in the presence of fluorescent sockets (including ballast, if mandatory), that needs to be replaced holistically by Intellitube. Soon after the first order is delivered in the early half of 2015, the conversion into Intellitube shall start off.

Currently, the US Navy possesses 160 naval vessels. The net projected set of Intellitubes that would completely be converted, shall represent a mere 10% of the net number of fluorescent tubes.
