Volta Trucks, Siemens Smart Infrastructure partner on charging

Volta Trucks and Siemens Smart Infrastructure are collaborating to deliver comprehensive eMobility charging infrastructure and software to Volta Trucks customers, with the goal of simplifying, de-risking, and accelerating their transition to commercial fleet electrification.

The partnership aims to bring together Volta Trucks’ “Truck-as-a-Service” and Siemens’ experience in electric vehicle support solutions. This includes software control systems, facility electrification, charging infrastructure, energy management, building equipment and project finance.

Volta says the technical infrastructure of the charging installations for Volta Trucks’ Truck-as-a-Service would be overseen by Siemens. This includes the hardware and software required to operate the charging and power distribution infrastructure for fleets of Volta Zeros.
