Voltify
Turning Rail Electrification into a Profit Opportunity
About Us
Voltify can save over 20% of rail’s main expense – energy.
They are retrofitting diesel locomotives with battery power, enabling them to fast charge through a dedicated smart microgrid network.
It was founded by Daphna Langer, previously founder of a logistics and data company, and Alon Kessel, founder of the public energy company Doral (global projects of over $1B each)
In under two years, they secured over $50M contingent PO and a paid pilot with one of the largest global rail companies with a $1B+ contract potential.
Voltify’s tech is unlocking a $20B ARR opportunity in rail energy sales, and $100B ARR from the off-grid, rail-connected energy network
Relevant Challenges
Energy Production
Voltify deploys a network of microgrids powered by dedicated solar panels to produce renewable energy for freight rail operations
Energy Storage
Voltify integrates energy storage into its microgrid network to ensure uninterrupted power supply for freight rail electrification. Our fast-charging infrastructure charges our locomotives dynamically — both en route and in rail yards — requiring robust storage capacity to buffer renewable generation and meet variable demand
Electrification
Voltify electrifies freight rail — one of the largest remaining fossil-fuel-dependent transport sectors — at zero cost and zero operational disruption to rail companies
