AT&T and Voltpost, a company providing lamppost EV charging solutions, will jointly provide IoT connectivity to EV charging posts across Michigan and the Metro-Detroit area. Together, the companies are aiming to enhance the efficiency and connectivity of EV infrastructure, empower communities with convenient charging access, and more broadly contribute to a sustainable future.
Voltpost, itself, retrofits lampposts into a modular EV charging platform, reducing the cost, timing, and footprint of charger deployment to provide cities and companies scalable curbside and parking lot charging. This charging infrastructure has been provided to both public and private customers, including government, real estate developers, universities, parking facility operators, and more. AT&T’s IoT connectivity aims to enhance charger uptime and ensure reliable charging access for drivers.
AT&T and Voltpost recently co-hosted a Connected Mobility Leadership event. The event brought together key figures from AT&T Connected Solutions, Voltpost’s leaders and key advisors, and public and private entities. The event highlighted AT&T’s commitment to advancing connected mobility and showcased the strategic collaboration with Voltpost.
In addition to its collaboration with AT&T, Voltpost is also looking to install further chargers in the coming months at several sites across Michigan, New York, and Illinois. These efforts align with AT&T’s ‘gigaton’ goal to help business customers reduce 1 billion metric tons of CO2 by 2035, using connectivity backed solutions such as fiber, 5G and IoT to do so – as well as promoting cleaner cities.
