History
Tritium was founded by engineers David Finn, James Kennedy, and Paul Sernia. The three met at the University of Queensland in 1999 and built a solar electric race car called the SunShark to race in the World Solar Challenge. The SunShark placed third in the race. Later, Finn, Kennedy, and Sernia formed a company to market and sell the SunShark's electric motor controller, the WaveSculptor22, which is currently manufactured and sold by Australian company Prohelion. In 2001, the trio founded Tritium as an engineering consulting firm in Brisbane, Australia and created systems to manage hydroelectric power stations, developed power storage systems for buildings, and created the battery management system for James Cameron’s Deepsea Challenger mission. Tritium created its first DC fast charger in 2012.
