The company has two units -- AMSC Superconductors, which combined AMSC Wires and SuperMachines (prototype electric motors and synchronous condensers), and AMSC Power Systems. In 2007 AMSC acquired a company that previously was a customer, Windtec Consulting, to expand into the alternative energy market.
