TechFlow has been awarded two new success memorandums from the Defense Innovation Unit for its electric vehicle charging infrastructure prototypes.
The success memos recognize TechFlow’s delivery of self-sustaining EV charging prototypes through an open system design that allows Department of Defense customers to minimize costs, advance operations and strengthen energy resilience, the technology company announced Thursday.
Michael Genseal, vice president of energy and mobility solutions at TechFlow, said, “Scaling the federal government’s EV charging infrastructure is about more than just adding chargers – it requires fast, effective deployment that meets demanding mission readiness standards, and TechFlow is up to the challenge.”
During the evaluation periods at Naval Base San Diego and Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, TechFlow’s prototype system showed a driver availability uptime exceeding 98 percent.
This most recent success memo builds off a previous memo authorized in November 2023. TechFlow’s EV charging infrastructure has now received a total of three DIU success memos, and the company aims to continue meeting the growing demand for zero-emission non-tactical vehicles.
“We’re proud to have developed our methodology in close collaboration with our DoD partners and DIU to help the federal government achieve its zero-emission goals while enhancing energy resilience, reducing costs and gaining the operational advantages that EVs deliver,” Genseal stated.
TechFlow is also reportedly nearing completion of a prototype project with the U.S. Air Force. If successful, it will be the fourth DOD service to issue a success memo for the company’s autonomous EV charging infrastructure prototypes.
The two new success memos recognize TechFlow’s continued work in the EV space. In September, TechFlow announced a $95 million contract from the U.S. Army Reserve to develop electric vehicle charging and microgrid infrastructures.
