Monday March 5, 9:00 am ET

ROCHESTER HILLS, Mich., March 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Energy Conversion Devices, Inc. (ECD Ovonics) (Nasdaq: ENER - News) today announced the first in a series of management moves consistent with the company's previously announced management succession planning. At his request, Stanford R. Ovshinsky, President and Chief Scientist and Technologist, has relinquished his executive management responsibilities as the company's President and a member of its Office of the Chairman to devote his full energy and intellect to the further development of the science and application of amorphous and disordered materials in the fields of energy and information technologies.

Mr. Ovshinsky's office will be located at ECD Ovonics' newly named Stan and Iris Ovshinsky Center for the Advancement of Energy and Information Technologies in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. He will continue to serve as Chairman of the Board of ECD Ovonics' Ovonyx, Inc. joint venture.

It is anticipated that Mr. Ovshinsky's ongoing research and development activities will be funded, in part, through specific budget allocations by the commercial divisions of ECD Ovonics and its joint venture companies and, in part, by third-party and government funding. This change in funding strategy is part of the previously disclosed process the company is undertaking of reevaluating and realigning its research and development, and general and administrative spending to be consistent with its commitment to achieve sustainable profitability.

Mr. James R. Metzger, previously Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, has been appointed to serve as Interim President and Chief Operating Officer of ECD Ovonics and will lead the development and execution of the Company's operating plans.

Reflecting on nearly 50 years of technological progress, Mr. Ovshinsky said, "When we formed the company, Iris and I wanted to use science and technology to solve serious societal problems. It is wonderful to see the inventions developed by Iris and me at ECD Ovonics become commercially viable so that people around the world can enjoy their benefits. We've built a solid foundation for the next generation of leaders at ECD Ovonics."

Chairman and CEO Robert C. Stempel said, "Stan has made an indelible mark not only on ECD Ovonics but also on science and technology generally, and we look forward to his continuing contributions in this new capacity. With Jim now responsible for all of our day-to-day operations, in addition to operational planning, the Board of Directors and I intend to focus on the forward strategic and succession plans as we continue our drive to commercial success and enhanced returns for shareholders."
