History
Tritium was established by engineers David Finn, James Kennedy, and Paul Sernia, initially focusing on developing technology for solar-powered race cars. Their work in power electronics led to the development of the Veefil RT50, Tritium's first DC fast charging product. The company rapidly expanded and deployed chargers across multiple continents.[3]
