Wade Wyant has taken the helm as CEO of power systems supplier Volta Power Systems.
Wyant served as a Volta strategic advisor and consultant for over five years before his promotion. He replaces Dave DeGraaf, who stepped down in June after three years as Volta’s CEO.
Wyant has been a technology leader for over 30 years. He spent 10 years as asset management software solutions company ITS Partners’ CEO. Volta said Wyant was chosen based on his leadership, technology and rapid growth experience.
Volta Board Chairman Todd Ritter said, “Wade is absolutely the right choice for CEO of Volta during this period of transition and new market opportunity. He has strong people and leadership skills, coupled with decades of experience in scaling tech companies.”
As CEO, Wyant will guide Volta through its next growth phase. The company said his role will involve implementing key process improvements and sales focuses in key RV and fleet/over-the-road trucking markets.
Wyant said, “Volta is a unique energy storage company and our access to automotive li-ion technology positions us to deliver solutions that no one else can. We are excited to pursue a future of mobility that no longer needs idling in any form. Whether that is RVs or over-the-road trucks, our technology electrifies everything but the drivetrain.”
Volta said the company has several partnerships and announcements waiting to be revealed, beginning at the Florida RV SuperShow in Tampa, Florida.
