Hyliion Holdings awarded U.S. Navy contract over KARNO power module

Hyliion Holdings (HYLN) announced it has been awarded a Phase II Small Business Innovation Research contract in the amount of $1.5M from the U.S. Navy to further develop and refine its scalable multi-megawatt platform for shipboard and stationary military applications. The newly awarded Phase II contract builds on the successful completion of Phase I, during which Hyliion completed the initial concept design and architectural planning for a multi-megawatt naval-compliant power generator system. Phase II will focus on key enabling technologies for the multi-KARNO Core architecture, including the development of integrated software and power electronics, motion control improvements, and communications systems essential for scaled system operation. Hyliion expects Phase II to commence immediately and continue for a period of 18 months. “Advancing the scalability and operational control of the KARNO Modules is critical to meeting the Navy’s future energy needs,” said Thomas Healy, Founder and CEO of Hyliion. “This award allows us to lay the groundwork for a highly resilient and efficient power solution that can adapt to mission requirements across both stationary and mobile defense operations.”
