China GDP grows 5% in Q1, beats expectations on exports, spending strength
Hyliion Holdings Corp. (NYSE American: HYLN) announced it successfully completed the first phase of performance testing for its KARNO power module using a representative U.S. Navy load profile. The testing was conducted as part of a development program funded by the Office of Naval Research to advance the technology for deployment on Navy vessels and stationary power applications.
The KARNO system operated through a demanding, mission-representative Navy load profile, demonstrating its ability to manage rapid load changes and sustain performance under varying thermal, control, and operating conditions. The testing validated the system’s load-following capability, reliability, and endurance under high-stress conditions.
In the next phase, Hyliion will conduct operations under simulated ship-motion conditions and complete several hundred additional run hours on dynamic load profiles before proceeding to at-sea demonstrations.
"This milestone is a testament to the performance, reliability, and innovation of our technology," said Thomas Healy, founder and CEO of Hyliion. "We’re proud to advance our collaboration with the U.S. Navy by offering solutions that directly support their mission for enhanced energy security and operational resilience."
The company stated that the KARNO Power Module’s quiet operation, fuel flexibility, and minimal maintenance requirements make it suitable for military power needs. Hyliion is developing modular power plant technology that can operate on various fuel sources for commercial, waste management, vehicle, and marine vessel applications.
The Austin, Texas-based company focuses on electricity-producing technologies and has research and development operations in Cincinnati, Ohio. Information in this article is based on a company press release.
