On January 19, 2026, Hybrid Power Solutions executed a Proof of Concept (POC) Development Agreement with Reliable Robots to deploy autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) at its new Etobicoke, Ontario facility. The initial trial will include units such as the PUDU T300 industrial delivery robot (600 kg payload capacity) and the Keenon T9 (40 kg payload), evaluating performance in material handling and intra-facility delivery tasks. Over a 4–6 week testing period, Hybrid’s operations team will collect data on cycle times, uptime rates, navigation accuracy and labour savings. Reliable Robots will provide hardware, setup, training and support at no charge, while Hybrid will grant facility access and operational feedback. Joint KPI reviews and a final summary report will inform decisions on future automation investments and facility layout adjustments as production ramps up.
