INI Power Systems – Award-Winning Tactical Hybrid Solutions Provider Showcasing Real-Time Innovations To Bridge Power, Energy Capability Gaps

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2015

QUANTICO, VA. & RESEARCH TRIANGLE, N.C. — Award-winning tactical hybrid solutions provider INI Power Systems will be sharing its expertise in portable flex fuel generator technology at the Modern Day Marine expo September 22-24 in Quantico, Virginia.

Co-sponsored by Marine Corps Base, Quantico, this event is one of the premier military equipment, systems, services, and technology expositions in the world.

“We’re thrilled to be participating again as one of the exhibiting companies to share our knowledge and products with the 8,000-plus attendees expected at the Crossroads of the Corps,” INI Power Chairman and President Larry Markoski said.

Markoski – holder of 15 patents in multiple fields – is the lead inventor and developer of INI Power’s flex fuel engine and generator technologies – and will be located in the Small Business Pavilion, Booth #25.

INI Power will be featuring its real-time innovations that bridge worldwide power and Operational Energy capability gaps for autonomous and hybrid operations, including 500 Watt, 1kW, 2kW, and 5kW One Man Portable auto starting solutions.

The company’s pioneering Flex Fuel Generators with OMNIVORE engine technology convert commercial, off-the-shelf gasoline-only generator systems into flexible and versatile multi-fuel (MF) systems. This makes them capable of operation with a large array of compressed and liquid fuels, including medium distillate fuels in support of the Department of Defense’s JP-8/F-24 Single Fuel Forward requirements.

The agnostic fuel architecture of INI Power products (JP-8, F-24 “NATO”, gasoline, propane, methanol, isopropanol) allows for the use of any fuel, in any AOR, in any combination, thereby allowing Warfighters to generate instantaneous power (no start up time) from any military logistical fuel, in addition to any fuels available off of the local economy, including contaminated fuels typically found in remote AORs for a wide-ranging number of mission sets.

INI Power’s 1kW auto starting generator solution was down selected for the MARCORSYSCOM One Man Portable Generator (1MPG) Program of Record, and is currently in full rate production supporting Marines and FMF CONOPS throughout the world.

INI’s latest 5kW product offering is the ideal, right sized, spot power generation solution for Airborne Command Posts, EOD Mission Sets, Surgical Shelters, ECUs, Mobile Readiness and Construction CONOPS, and Contingency Readiness Operations.
