The Platform
Trident Hybrid Powertrain
A modular, series-hybrid marine driveline that combines electric propulsion, onboard energy storage, and a combustion range extender in one integrated system — engineered around the vessel's duty cycle.
What we provide
An engineered driveline, configured for integration.
The Trident Hybrid is delivered as an engineered system — power unit, electric drive, energy storage, and control software — specified to your platform.
Combustion Range
A marinized combustion auxiliary power unit generates electrical power to extend operating range and support sustained missions.
Electric Capability
High-voltage electric drive delivers instant torque, low-acoustic operation, and zero local propulsion emissions in electric mode.
Intelligent Control
A software-defined control system coordinates the motor, battery, charging, auxiliary power unit, and thermal limits in real time.
Energy Storage
Marine-rated high-voltage battery system, packaged for the hull and matched to duty cycle.
Power Electronics
Inverters, DC-DC, and onboard charging integrated into a single managed high-voltage architecture.
Exportable Power
Onboard energy can be used for hotel loads, mission systems, or shore export depending on configuration.
Integration pathways
Two ways to adopt Trident Hybrid.
OEM New-Build
Designed in from the keel up
We work alongside your engineering team to specify and integrate the Trident Hybrid driveline into a new platform — packaging, controls, and performance tuned to your product.
- Joint engineering & integration support
- Licensable platform & control software
- Performance and efficiency tuned to duty cycle
Retrofit
Hybridize what's already on the water
Convert existing hulls and fleets to hybrid-electric power to cut fuel burn and emissions and add electric-only capability — without a clean-sheet build.
- Assessment of hull, duty cycle & packaging
- Hybrid driveline conversion
- Fuel, emissions & capability gains

Why it matters
Quieter, cleaner, more capable.
Lower fuel & emissions
Lower fuel usage in the demonstrator, with reduced emissions across the duty cycle.
Acoustic advantage
Electric-only operation enables low-noise, low-signature running for sensitive and defense use.
New capability
Instant torque, onboard exportable power, and low-acoustic loitering support use cases conventional drivetrains cannot.
