Chi Ikuku is an innovative hybrid electric powertrain system designed to revolutionize military and commercial mobility. Developed in partnership with the University of Texas Center for Electrochemistry (UT CEM), this technology integrates renewable energy sources, including a concealed wind capture system, which enhances vehicle performance and offers unlimited range. The system is particularly valuable in military applications, where reducing fuel dependency and extending operational range are critical. In civilian markets, Chi Ikuku targets the commercial EV sector, providing fleet operators and heavy-duty vehicle manufacturers with a reliable, sustainable power solution. Chi Ikuku’s vehicle-to-grid (V2G) capability further enhances its appeal, allowing vehicles to supply power back to the grid, optimizing energy efficiency. Strategic partnerships with automotive manufacturers, renewable energy companies, and smart grid providers will drive the adoption of this technology across various sectors. Our robust intellectual property portfolio, combined with ongoing research into Quantum Wind Energy, positions Chi Ikuku at the forefront of energy-efficient propulsion systems. This technology not only addresses current energy challenges but also sets the stage for future advancements in both military and civilian transportation.
