Flux Power provides update on major orders from leading airlines, signaling continued industry-wide shift to sustainable GSE solutions

Apr 08, 2025

Flux Power Holdings, Inc., a leading developer of advanced lithium-ion energy storage solutions for the electrification of commercial and industrial equipment, today provided an update on its significant presence within the airline industry’s continued electrification of Ground Support Equipment (“GSE”). Over the past calendar year, six new large North American airlines have placed purchase orders for Flux Power’s G-Series lithium-ion solutions to electrify their GSE fleets at 7 different locations in North America, further reflecting the industry’s accelerating commitment to sustainability.

These new airline customers purchase orders totaling over $6 million in the last calendar year with more orders expected this year, and the approximately $20 million in total GSE orders, reflect a growing trend of major airlines transitioning away from lead acid and fossil fuel-powered GSE in favor of cleaner, more efficient lithium-ion solutions. As airlines continue to adopt sustainability initiatives and carbon-reduction strategies, Flux Power’s energy solutions provide a reliable, high-performance alternative that enhances operational efficiency while lowering emissions and the total cost of ownership.

Averest Inc., Flux Power's trusted GSE sales and service provider, played a pivotal role in securing partnerships with these large airlines through their electric solutions expertise and strong commitment to customer satisfaction.

These purchase orders included Flux Power’s innovative 80-volt, G80 series batteries and Flux Power’s SkyEMS integrated telematics Cloud Software Platform that provides advanced data analysis capabilities, empowering customers with actionable insights for fleet optimization and operational efficiency. These batteries will power a range of essential ground support equipment including bag tractors and pushback tractors as part of the customers’ fleet electrification strategy.

"The growing list of airlines that have adopted our lithium-ion solutions during the past year speaks volumes about the shift toward electrification in ground support operations," said Krishna Vanka, CEO at Flux Power. "As regulatory pressures increase and airlines commit to and execute upon their long-term sustainability goals, we are proud to be at the forefront of the transition with our proven, high-efficiency energy solutions."

“We’ve seen firsthand how the airline industry is accelerating its shift to sustainable ground support operations,” said Michael Hole, Director of Global Sales and Marketing at Averest. "We’re proud to help airlines transition their GSE fleets to Flux Power’s clean, reliable lithium-ion energy solutions.”
