About Voltpost

Voltpost is a pioneering company dedicated to decarbonizing mobility by democratizing charging access. Our mission is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution by rapidly deploying chargers that accelerate the electric mobility transition.

We achieve this by retrofitting lampposts into Voltposts, a modular and upgradable charging platform. This provides people convenient and affordable charging access while reducing the cost, timing, and footprint of chargers.

Our vision is to be a transformative force in the climate movement by making charging as common as lampposts.
