Certification**
I, Donald A. French, certify that:

1.
I have reviewed this annual report on Form 10-K of UQM      Technologies, Inc.:
2.
Based on my knowledge, this annual report does not      contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material      fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances      under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the      period covered by this annual report;
3.
Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and      other financial information included in this annual report, fairly present      in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations      and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in      this annual report;
4.
The registrant's other certifying officers and I are      responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and      procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and      internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act      Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the registrant and we have:
a.
Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or      caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our      supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the      registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us      by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which      this annual report is being prepared;
b.
Designed such internal control over financial      reporting, or caused such internal control over financial reporting to be      designed under our supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding      the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial      statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted      accounting principles;
c.
Evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's      disclosure controls and procedures and presented in this annual report our      conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and      procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this annual report      based on such evaluation; and
d.
Disclosed in this annual report any change in the      registrant's internal control over financial reporting that occurred      during the registrant's most recent fiscal quarter (the registrant's      fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has materially      affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant's      internal control over financial reporting; and
5.
The registrant's other certifying officers and I have      disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over      financial reporting, to the registrant's auditors and the audit      committee of the registrant's board of directors (or persons performing      the equivalent functions):
a.
All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in      the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting which      are reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrant's ability to      record, process, summarize and report financial information; and
b.
Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves      management or other employees who have a significant role in the      registrant's internal controls over financial reporting.
