Summary of POWER EFFICIENCY CORP

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

OVERVIEW

The Company generates revenues from a single business segment: the design, development, marketing and sale of Motor Efficiency Controllers ("MEC"), which are proprietary solid state electrical motor controls designed to reduce energy consumption in alternating current induction motors.

The Company began generating revenues from sales of its patented MEC line of motor controllers in late 1995. As of June 30, 2008, the Company had total stockholders' equity of $5,687,296 primarily due to (i) the Company's sale of 140,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock in a private offering from October of 2007 through January of 2008, (ii) the Company's sale of 12,950,016 shares of common stock in a private stock offering from November of 2006 through March of 2007, (iii) the Company's sale of 14,500,000 shares of common stock in a private stock offering in July and August of 2005, (iv) the Company's sale of 2,346,233 shares of Series A-1 Convertible Preferred stock to Summit Energy Ventures, LLC in June of 2002 and (v) the conversion of notes payable of approximately $1,047,000 into 982,504 shares of Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock in October of 2003.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2008 AND
2007.

REVENUES

Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2008 were approximately $165,000, compared to $230,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, a decrease of $65,000 or 28%. This decrease is mainly attributable to sales to a local transit authority, for the use on elevators and escalators, totaled approximately $150,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2007. No such singularly large sales occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2008. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in sales to OEMs during the three months ended June 30, 2008 totaling approximately $109,000, compared to $48,000 for the three month period ending June 30, 2007.

Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were approximately $298,000, compared to $267,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $31,000 or 12%. This increase is mainly attributable to an increase in sales in the elevator and escalator market segment. Specifically, sales in the first six months of 2008 included approximately $59,000 to major transit facilities, approximately $10,000 to retail facilities and approximately $32,000 to convention centers.

COST OF SALES

Total cost of sales, which includes material, direct labor, overhead, and inventory obsolescence for the three months ended June 30, 2008 were approximately $157,000, compared to $154,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $3,000 or 2%. As a percentage of sales, total cost of sales increased to approximately 95% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2008, compared to approximately 67% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The increase in the costs as a percentage of sales was primarily due the Company's replacement of 40 Platform E MECs with more feature rich and expensive Platform 1 MECs for no additional charge to the customer. This transaction added approximately $22,000 to the Company's cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2008. All of the Platform E MECs returned to the Company were not installed, and in good working condition. However, with the release of the Company's new digital line of MECs, we determined that the Platform E units that were returned were obsolete, and therefore did not record the units back into inventory. During the three months ended June 30, 2008, the Company also wrote off the remaining Platform E components held in its inventory. In total, the Company recorded an inventory obsolescence charge of approximately $25,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2008. Excluding the inventory obsolescence charge of $25,000 and the $22,000 charge from replacing Platform E units with Platform 1 units, the Company's cost of sales was approximately $110,000, or 67% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2008.

Total manufacturing cost of sales, which includes material and direct labor and overhead for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were approximately $255,000 compared to approximately $188,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $67,000 or 36%. As a percentage of sales, total cost of sales increased to approximately 86% for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to approximately 71% for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The increase in the costs as a percentage of sales was primarily due to the Company's replacement of 40 Platform E MECs with Platform 1 MECs, as well as the inventory obsolescence charges, as described above.

GROSS MARGIN

Gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2008 was approximately $8,000 compared to approximately $76,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, a decrease of $68,000 or 89%. This decrease was primarily due to the Company's replacement of 40 Platform E MECs with Platform 1 MECs, and the inventory obsolescence charges, as described above.

Gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was approximately $43,000 compared to approximately $78,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007, a decrease of $35,000 or 45%. This decrease was primarily due to the Company's replacement of 40 Platform E MECs with Platform 1 MECs, and the inventory obsolescence charge, as described above. This decrease was partially offset by a higher volume of sales during the first six months of 2008 and lower per unit production costs due to the Company bringing the majority of its manufacturing in-house.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses were approximately $265,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2008, as compared to approximately $138,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $127,000 or 92%. This increase is mainly attributable to the Company's continued research and development efforts on its digital controller for both its single-phase and three-phase products. Specifically, the increased costs include additional personnel in the Company's research and development department, which resulted in higher salaries and related payroll costs, as well as the costs associated with the Company's research and development center, and new product certification expenses.

Research and development expenses were approximately $426,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, as compared to approximately $233,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $193,000 or 83%. This increase is mainly attributable to the Company's continued research and development efforts on its digital controller for both its single-phase and three-phase products. Specifically, the increased costs include additional personnel in the Company's research and development department, which resulted in higher salaries and related payroll costs, as well as the opening of a research and development center, and new product certification expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were approximately $799,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2008, as compared to $621,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $178,000 or 29%. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses compared to the prior year was primarily due to an increase in payroll, and payroll related costs, as well as increases in sales travel expenses, marketing, tradeshows and advertising expenses, and sales related legal and consulting expenses. The increases in payroll expenses were due to the growth of the Company's sales personnel.

Although we currently have over 12 months of working capital, management may need to sell additional equity or debt securities in order to continue to finance the Company's operations. The Company believes it can raise additional funds through private placements of equity or debt. However, there are no assurances that sufficient capital can be raised.

Cash Requirements and Need for Additional Funds

The Company anticipates a substantial need for cash to fund its working capital requirements. In accordance with the Company's prepared expansion plan, it is the opinion of management that approximately $3.0 - $3.6 million will be required to cover operating expenses, including, but not limited to, the development of the Company's next generation products, marketing, sales and operations during the next twelve months.
