Volta Energy
Founded in 2009, Volta has been ahead of the grain in creating a sustainable future for over a decade. Founded on the belief of rethinking what was obvious, considering what other's hadn't and helping businesses in ways they hadn't realised could be helped, Volta has been making equipment and supplying services to companies to help them shrink their carbon footprint - saving them huge in the short term and long run. Made up of a small team of experienced experts, Volta's founder was thinking of a world of electric vehicles ten years before they became the norm. How would electric vehicles effect the power grid? How could we stably charge thousands of cars, safely? Before this solution could be solved, Volta's team found a method of reducing a business' expenses by reducing their electrical use, increasing productivity of equipment and sensing equipment failure before it happens. The stresses of unexpected downtime and complications are eliminated and replaced with the reward of systems operating at a fraction of the cost of running. Imagine your electrical architecture running without surprise issues while saving thousands in electrical cost a year. Hundreds of companies have become sustainable with Volta's help. Once this technology had been mastered, Volta set its arrow towards a bigger (and its original) target - cars. Can cars be more sustainable for those who don't have the resources to buy electric? Rethink the obvious.
