Active Power (NASDAQ:ACPW) has been giving Manera and his team a strong run, with its shares trading near $4 as they go to press -- a nice pop from their cost basis of $3.10. The strength in Active Power's shares is being powered by an announcement that the company scored the contract for a continuous power system to China for use at the country's National Olympics being held in October. Also stoking the flames is a report in August that the company nailed a new order from Caterpillar for four 1200 kVA flywheel uninterruptible power supply See UPS.
