Hyliion Holdings Announces They Were Selected By The Department Of The Air Force And The Department Of Defense's Chief Digital And Artificial Intelligence Office To Respond To A Validated Operational Requirement Within The Air Force To Maintain Critical Operations During Fuel Supply Disruptions

Hyliion Holdings Corp. (NYSE:HYLN), a leading provider of innovative KARNO™ Power Modules, announced today that they were selected by the Department of the Air Force and the Department of Defense's Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office (CDAO) to respond to a validated operational requirement within the Air Force to maintain critical operations during fuel supply disruptions by allowing seamless transitions between available fuels.

Having achieved "Awardable" status, Hyliion can now directly support the Air Force's transition toward more resilient energy sources, reducing reliance on one fuel and enabling integration of alternative fuels in-line with DoD energy strategy. Hyliion was selected through the CDAO's innovative solicitation process known as the Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace, which is designed to accelerate the procurement and adoption of mission critical technologies, such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and resilient energy technologies.

"The Air Force leveraged the Tradewinds solicitation process to quickly collaborate with innovative American companies to enhance our ability to maintain critical operations during fuel supply disruptions, simplify logistics, and reduce procurement and maintenance costs over time," said Mr. Kirk Phillips, Director, Air Force Office of Energy Assurance.

"Being featured on the Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace is a significant milestone for Hyliion," said Thomas Healy, Founder and CEO of Hyliion. "It validates the strategic value of our KARNO technology and underscores our commitment to supporting government missions. We are excited to play a role in reducing logistical burdens and increasing agility by eliminating the need for separate generators for each fuel type."

The KARNO system's versatility across fuel types and its superior environmental footprint makes it ideal for dynamic and remote deployment scenarios where resilience, efficiency, and sustainability are paramount.

Hyliion was recognized among a competitive field of applicants to the Tradewinds Solutions marketplace whose solutions demonstrated innovation, scalability, and potential impact on DoD missions.
