Volterra announced this week that it is expanding its electric vehicle charging infrastructure network with the addition of two new ZEV infrastructure development locations strategically located in major transportation hubs in California.
The first newly acquired site covers 0.85 acres off the Pacific Coast Highway in Wilmington, California, and is strategically located just four miles from the Port of Long Beach and five miles from the Port of Los Angeles. The company believes the region is ideally located to support significant electric transportation operations. The site can accommodate up to 30 electric stalls and has already secured up to 5 megawatts of power from the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power.
The second site, located on 2.75 acres in West Sacramento, California, is strategically located near both Interstate 5 and Interstate 80. The site will operate up to 100 electric charging stations with more than megawatts of power.
Once operational, the West Sacramento site will be Volterra’s largest commercial electric vehicle charging hub, second only to the 65 port stations Volterra operated for logistics company Einride in March.
“Securing these two locations in California is an important step forward in our mission to support the electrification of commercial fleets,” said Sylvia Hendron, Chief Development Officer, Voltera. “Each location has been carefully selected and developed to meet the unique needs of ZEV fleets, from proximity to major transportation routes to securing the necessary financing.”
The two new charging depots in California bring the company’s portfolio to a total of 22 locations, strategically located in major transportation hubs in California, Texas, Georgia, Arizona and Florida. These sites are partially funded through grants and incentives (as mentioned above) and are part of a major $150 million expansion that began earlier this year.
Matt Curwood, Voltera’s Director of Bus Charging Sales, recently appeared as a guest on Quick Charge and explained how Voltera Power’s model illuminates the school and transit bus fleet charging experience for fleet managers across the country. I explained about the dolphins. You can check it below.
