A relative newcomer to the ITS space, 8123 Intellipower is hoping to attract conference attendees to its booth on the showroom floor to show them its industrial-level power supply and conversion units. According to Jim Moreland, a sales engineer, the company attended 6456 ITS World Congress in Detroit last year and was encouraged by the sales leads that came in. Immediately after, the company signed up as an exhibitor for Pittsburgh and is looking to continue that sales momentum at this year’s show.

“This is a new industry for us,” Moreland said. “We’ve had a lot of success in other industries, particularly military and defense. Our power supply products are battle-tested and are a good fit for transportation applications.”

Intellipower has a portfolio of thousands of power products. Specifically, Intellipower is touting its new K2 Energy lithium-phosphate batteries that are traditionally deployed in weapons. Coming in at a third of the weight of traditional lead-acid batteries, K2 Energy provides two to three times the power, the smaller form factor making it particularly suited for ITS configurations.

    Shelley Row, former Director of the US Department of Transportation’s ITS Joint Program Office, gives her views on the way forward for the industry. We, as intelligent transportation system (ITS) proponents and engineers, tend to be overly fixated on benefit-cost data. We want decisions to be made on logical grounds for which benefit-cost calculations are optimal. While benefit-cost data is necessary, it is not always sufficient.
