PowerFlex on the Water at APTA TRANSform

APTA week is loud. This is the quiet part.

A trade show floor gives you ninety seconds with someone who is being pulled in four directions. We wanted to offer the opposite.

PowerFlex has chartered a private boat on the Chicago River for the afternoon before TRANSform gets going in earnest. Twenty-two people from transit agencies, fleet operators and the wider electrification community — open bar, food, and two hours to actually talk to one another while the city goes past.

There is no presentation and no product demo. We are not going to stand up with slides. The value of an afternoon like this is the room, and our job is to introduce you to the people in it who are solving the same problems you are — depot power, charger uptime, utility timelines, the gap between a funded plan and an energized one.

You will be back on dry land by 5:00 PM, in good time for whatever the evening holds.
