Prohelion Announces IP Licencing Agreement with Tritium

Prohelion, a start-up specialising in mobile battery solutions, has entered into an agreement with Tritium to licence their solar racing products, including the IQ Battery Management System (BMS) and WaveSculptor Motor Controller. Prohelion plans to use the Tritium intellectual property (IP) to manufacture battery management systems and motor controllers under the Prohelion brand and to utilise this technology within its other product lines.

When announcing the agreement, Prohelion CEO Anthony Prior said, “Tritium is a respected name in the industry, and we will be leveraging the many years invested by Tritium to produce reliable, robust and high-performing solutions. The Tritium BMS is widely used among solar car teams due to its light weight, functionality and supporting software and systems. It is regarded as the first choice when building a solar car battery.”

Tritium, a Brisbane-based DC fast charging manufacturer for electric vehicles, got its start creating technology for the solar racing community.

“Prohelion has a dynamic team behind them and I’m excited to follow their journey,” said James Kennedy, Tritium Founder and Chief Technology Officer. “I know the Tritium IP is in good hands, and we hope to see this start-up grow and produce great products domestically and overseas, generating high-skilled jobs in the community.”

The Prohelion BMS solutions are available for sale now from the Prohelion website: www.prohelion.com. The WaveSculptor product will be available in June 2021.
