The Stellar Hybrid Power Source (HPS) has been selected as a finalist for the CONEXPO 2026 Next Level Awards in the Equipment category, based on criteria related to innovation, application, engineering, scalability, and impact.

Stellar Industries, an American manufacturer of work trucks, trailers, and service truck and van accessories, announced that its HPS is one of 10 finalists in the Equipment category. The ten finalists will compete for attendee votes during CONEXPO, taking place March 3–7, 2026, in Las Vegas, Nevada. In a statement, Tim Davison, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Stellar, said:

“It’s truly an honor to be named a finalist for this award, We are continuously improving our products to better serve an industry that continues to push the envelope.”

The HPS changes the way service trucks deliver power by combining automotive-grade lithium-ion technology with a modular hydraulic power system. The system provides low-voltage, 100% zero-emission energy to run hydraulic tools quietly and efficiently on the jobsite. Thanks to anti-idle compliance, operators can select the best configuration to match the required performance. When charging is required, the system automatically uses the truck’s alternator, even while driving to the next jobsite, or standard 120V connection to recharge, helping eliminate downtime while reducing fuel use and emissions.

The HPS delivers up to 12.8 kWh and up to eight hours of runtime in its slimmest, lightest configuration. Weighing 790 lb, it can be mounted in the load bed or side pack for easy integration on new builds or retrofits. Also designed to work with both ICE and EV chassis.

“CONEXPO-CON/AGG is committed to celebrating innovation and recognizing those companies that are shaping the future of our industry.”

Said Dana Wuesthoff, CONEXPO-CON/AGG Show Director. Winners will be crowned on the Ground Breakers Stage on Friday, March 6, at 10:30 a.m.
