Reliable Electric Power On-Demand, Anywhere

June 2020 -- As the military adds innovative capabilities to vehicles, there is a critical need for additional electrical power to support them. That need for more power includes U.S. military special operations forces that are given the latest in advanced technology. To solve that problem, the vehicles these operators use can be transformed into mobile power generators with minimal changes that don’t affect the performance of the vehicle. The result? Mission assured power, generated from the vehicle’s powertrain; enabling greater threat detection, lethality range extension and freedom of maneuver while recharging mission equipment.

Solving for the Power Gap

The Cavalry & Armor Journal - October 11, 2019 Electrical power itself is almost always taken for granted, yet it’s vital for us to live our everyday lives. We expect power to be available whether we are home, at work, at school, out to eat, going to the movies, or going to the doctor, and we depend on it. Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines, however, do not have that luxury and must tow a generator for power, that cannot be operated on while on-the-move or in austere environments. Therefore, as capabilities evolve and there is a need for greater power onboard vehicles, we must continue developing technologies for our warfighters to achieve success.
