\n Initial order potential first step to a multi-year deployment program.<\/i>\n <\/p>\n

\n GARDENA, Calif., Sept. 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — <\/b>Polar Power, Inc. (Nasdaq: POLA) (\u201cPolar\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d), a designer and manufacturer of high-efficiency DC power systems for telecom and other mission-critical applications, today announced it has received a trial order for 50 propane-fueled DC generators from a major Tier 1 telecom operator in Southeast Asia. The generators will power off-grid and bad-grid cell sites.<\/p>\n

The trial is the first phase of a potential five-year program that could cover approximately 2,500 of the customer’s sites. Discussions between the Company and this customer have begun on the next phase of 200 propane generators. The customer has not committed to broader deployment. If it proceeds, and based on current estimated system pricing, the opportunity could represent up to approximately $60 million in revenue over five years. Polar\u2019s DC Generator ranges from $19,000 to $27,000 each depending on accessories and service options.<\/p>\n

The order follows the Company\u2019s more than five years of work with telecom operators in the Asia-Pacific region, including vendor qualification, multiple rounds of technical evaluation, field testing, and operational reviews.<\/p>\n

According to the TowerXchange\u2019s Q2 2024 Asia Guide there are 426,967 telecom towers\/sites across the eight Southeast Asian markets.<\/p>\n

“This order is an important step toward modernizing telecom power with LPG and DC systems,” said Arthur D. Sams, Chief Executive Officer of Polar. “We believe the combination of economic and environmental benefits will attract other operators and LPG distributors, whose participation could help accelerate our sales. Our expectation is that orders from other Telecom companies in this region will take months to close as opposed to years due to the large energy savings especially with the rising cost and theft of diesel fuel.”<\/p>\n

Polar’s DC generator combines its Supra\u2122<\/sup> system controls and a high-efficiency permanent magnet alternator with Toyota 1KS prime power engines. Based on field experience, the Company estimates that:<\/p>\n
