Volatus Infrastructure & Energy Solutions to work with PowerUp America and help electrify transport infrastructure within the US

Vola­tus Infra­struc­ture & Ener­gy Solu­tions has signed a mem­o­ran­dum of under­stand­ing (MOU) with the Ten­nessee-based sus­tain­able trans­porta­tion solu­tions com­pa­ny, PowerUp Amer­i­ca.

Both com­pa­nies will col­lab­o­rate to elec­tri­fy the infra­struc­ture at air­ports, ver­ti­ports and oth­er rel­e­vant elec­tric mobil­i­ty loca­tions with­in the Unit­ed States to cre­ate a sus­tain­able, acces­si­ble region­al trans­porta­tion ecosys­tem.

Bob John­son, Chief Com­mer­cial Offi­cer, VI&E Solu­tions, said: “The US elec­tric grid is over 100 years old; we must remem­ber it was not built for effi­cien­cy. We look for­ward to work­ing hand-in-hand with PowerUp Amer­i­ca to com­ple­ment strate­gies for a new stan­dard for eVTOL charg­ing in advanced air mobil­i­ty. Our part­ner­ship will be where the future lands today.”

PowerUp Amer­i­ca believes that sus­tain­abil­i­ty and car­bon neu­tral­i­ty are crit­i­cal to build­ing a brighter future. As such, they are com­mit­ted to not only pro­vid­ing inno­v­a­tive and acces­si­ble EV charg­ing infra­struc­ture but doing so in a way that is respon­si­ble and con­sid­er­ate.

They strive to pro­mote clean ener­gy and enable elec­tri­fi­ca­tion across all modes of trans­porta­tion, from air to sea, with a focus on reduc­ing car­bon emis­sions and cre­at­ing a more sus­tain­able future for gen­er­a­tions to come.

Josh Turn­er, CEO of PowerUp Amer­i­ca, empha­sized the sig­nif­i­cance of this part­ner­ship. He said: “Our part­ner­ship with VI&E Solu­tions is a ground­break­ing ini­tia­tive to devel­op an air­port charg­ing net­work through­out the region.

“This col­lab­o­ra­tion marks a sig­nif­i­cant mile­stone in our mis­sion to rev­o­lu­tionise the trans­porta­tion land­scape by inte­grat­ing sus­tain­able ener­gy solu­tions with our nation’s avi­a­tion infra­struc­ture. Togeth­er we are com­mit­ted to cre­at­ing a robust net­work for freight and pas­sen­ger trans­port, set­ting a new stan­dard for air­port con­nec­tiv­i­ty.”

He added: “Our joint effort sig­ni­fies more than just the expan­sion of charg­ing infra­struc­ture; it rep­re­sents a shared vision for a green­er, more con­nect­ed future. We look for­ward to the inno­va­tion and oppor­tu­ni­ties this part­ner­ship will bring to our com­mu­ni­ties and the pos­i­tive impact it will have on our envi­ron­ment.”

Found­ed in 2021, Vola­tus Infra­struc­ture & Ener­gy Solu­tions is con­nect­ing com­mu­ni­ties with best-in-class eVTOL infra­struc­ture tech­nol­o­gy to ensure soci­ety is ready for the future. VI&E Solu­tions offers three mod­u­lar ver­ti­port designs and charg­ing sta­tions for elec­tric vehi­cles across all medi­ums: air, land and sea.
