What Voltera does

Voltera is a private EV charging infrastructure developer founded in 2022 as a spinout from EdgeConneX, a global data center developer. The company designs, builds, owns, and operates high-utilization charging hubs for commercial fleets, autonomous vehicle operators, ride-hail services, last-mile delivery operators, automotive OEMs, convenience store chains, and fuel retailers across major U.S. metropolitan markets. Headquartered in Culver City, California, with additional offices in Arlington, Virginia, and Palo Alto, California, Voltera serves customers including Waymo (robotaxi) and Einride (heavy-duty electric freight) under a Charging-as-a-Service model in which the company retains asset ownership and customers pay predictable monthly operating expenses.

The platform integrates real estate acquisition, utility power procurement, AHJ permitting, construction, and ongoing operations. Voltera Cloud is the company's proprietary in-house operating system, providing real-time infrastructure monitoring, power and energy management, fleet throughput analytics, and API integrations. Supporting technology includes a proprietary load-sharing software that enables more chargers to operate within constrained utility power allocations, and a 24/7 in-house Integrated Operations Center. The company has achieved ISO/IEC 27001 certification for information security management.

Voltera's go-to-market is direct enterprise sales targeting fleet operators, AV companies, and OEMs across 11+ U.S. metro markets. The business is capital-intensive, with majority owner EQT providing a multibillion-dollar equity commitment and the company holding a $150 million debt facility from ING, Investec, and KfW IPEX-Bank, supplemented by federal grants totaling over $33 million. As of April 2025, the portfolio included 20 properties with 115+ MW of total power capacity. In May 2026, the company announced a definitive agreement to combine with Revel to form a scaled EV infrastructure platform spanning 1,000+ charging stalls across 11 major U.S. metros.

Revenue model

1. Charging-as-a-Service / Infrastructure-as-a-Service: Voltera funds, builds, owns, and operates the charging infrastructure and delivers charging capacity to fleet customers under a monthly operating expense (OpEx) model with no upfront capital required from the customer. Customers pay predictable monthly fees backed by long-term contracts. Voltera also deploys capital across the asset base (sites, chargers, power infrastructure) and captures revenue across the asset lifecycle. Termed "Charging Infrastructure as a Service" by the company.

Partnerships

Eight partnerships are on record, tiered flagship / transformational, foundational / origin partner, strategic hardware partner, operational services partner, strategic connectivity partner, flagship customer / co-development and industry ecosystem member.

• Revelflagship / transformationalStrategic or Co-development PartnerVoltera and Revel entered into a definitive agreement to combine their businesses (May 26, 2026), creating a next-generation EV charging infrastructure platform with 1,000+ charging stalls across 11 major U.S. metro markets focused on autonomous vehicles, electric fleets, and ride-hail deployment. Combined company will operate under the Voltera name, led by Revel CEO Frank Reig, with current Voltera CEO Brett Hauser transitioning to a senior commercial advisory role. EQT will serve as majority owner; Global Infrastructure Partners (BlackRock) will retain a minority stake.
• EdgeConneXfoundational / origin partnerStrategic or Co-development PartnerVoltera originated within EdgeConneX, a global data center developer, and was spun out in 2022. Voltera applies EdgeConneX's core competencies in securing land and power, which are strategically important aspects of building EV charging infrastructure. KfW IPEX-Bank cites an existing long-standing relationship with EQT and EdgeConneX through prior data center project financings.
• Zerovastrategic hardware partnerTechnology or IntegrationZerova is Voltera's hardware partner providing high-power 300 kW DC fast chargers deployed at the Lynwood facility. Chargers were selected after extensive diligence on charger reliability, software integration, and supply chain resilience.
• Ameritoperational services partnerStrategic or Co-development PartnerVoltera partnered with Amerit to make EV maintenance and fleet support available in Voltera charging facilities. Announced June 23, 2023. Provides fleets with on-site vehicle maintenance and servicing as part of Voltera's hub offering.
• Zayostrategic connectivity partnerTechnology or IntegrationVoltera and Zayo announced a partnership (January 31, 2024) to bring high-bandwidth connectivity to zero-emission vehicle fleets — providing networking infrastructure to support Voltera's charging hubs and connected fleet operations.
• Einrideflagship customer / co-developmentStrategic or Co-development PartnerVoltera developed the Einride Smartcharger Station at Lynwood, California (announced March 28, 2024) — North America's largest operational charging site for electric heavy-duty freight with 65 high-power charging stations, up to 11 MW of capacity, and capable of hosting up to 200 Class 8 trucks per day. Permitted, built, energized, and operationalized in under 18 months.
• CharINindustry ecosystem memberOthersVoltera became a member of CharIN (Charging Interface Initiative, June 23, 2023), the global association dedicated to promoting interoperability based on the Combined Charging System (CCS) and other charging standards — supporting Voltera's focus on EV charging interoperability and standards.

Recent moves9 records

Expansion highlights7 records

Direct peers

• Terawatt Infrastructure: Terawatt builds and operates large-scale EV charging depots for medium- and heavy-duty commercial fleets — directly overlapping with Voltera's HDV/fleet depot thesis, including the same 'logistics hub' positioning, long-term customer contracts, and Infrastructure-as-a-Service model.
• Forum Mobility: Forum Mobility develops and operates high-power charging depots at California ports for electric drayage trucks, closely paralleling Voltera's port-adjacent (Wilmington, Lynwood) and Class 8 freight charging strategy.
• WattEV: WattEV builds public-access heavy-duty truck charging sites along freight corridors in California and Oregon, competing with Voltera for the same MHDV fleet customers and the same DOE/Volkswagen-funded grant pool.
• Revel: Revel operates an urban fast-charging network and ride-hail service in New York and other major metros; it is the direct peer in the announced May 2026 combination with Voltera, sharing the urban AV/ride-hail depot customer base.

Broad incumbents

• ChargePoint: ChargePoint is the largest U.S. networked EV charging provider with a broad hardware-plus-software portfolio; its commercial fleet offerings and subscription software overlap with Voltera Cloud and Voltera's turnkey service model, though it does not own/operate depot real estate.
• EVgo: EVgo operates a U.S. fast-charging network and is increasingly targeting fleet customers; its owned-and-operated infrastructure model and public-private partnerships are structurally similar to Voltera's deployment approach, though EVgo skews toward consumer light-duty sites.
• Tesla Supercharger: Tesla's Supercharger network is the dominant U.S. fast-charging footprint and increasingly opening to non-Tesla fleets; its scale, site control, and reliability benchmark set the bar for high-utilization charging that Voltera's depot model is built to exceed for commercial fleets.
• Electrify America: Electrify America operates a U.S. fast-charging network originally funded by the Volkswagen diesel settlement and is expanding into commercial fleet and depot solutions that overlap with Voltera's fleet-as-a-service offering.
• BP Pulse: BP Pulse, the EV charging arm of BP, builds and operates depot and public fast-charging infrastructure for fleets in North America — a large incumbent with comparable fleet depot ambitions, deeper balance sheet, and a fuel-retailer co-location strategy similar to Voltera's convenience store channel.

Emerging players

• InCharge Energy: InCharge Energy provides turnkey EV charging solutions for commercial fleets, workplaces, and dealerships — an emerging player whose end-to-end project delivery and fleet customer base partially overlap with Voltera's enterprise value proposition.
