Voltani buys Gocharge to expand charging platform

Voltani, the parent of Chargetech, has acquired the Gocharge brand, product line and operations to combine enterprise charging infrastructure with experiential and custom-branded charging solutions. The deal broadens Voltani’s reach across healthcare, education, events, hospitality and venue-based use cases.

Why it matters: - The acquisition gives Voltani a broader charging-solutions platform with two brands serving different customer needs. - Chargetech will keep its enterprise focus, while Gocharge adds experiential charging and branded activation capabilities. - The combined platform is designed to expand Voltani’s market reach and growth options.

What happened: - Voltani, Inc., parent company of Chargetech, announced the acquisition of the Gocharge brand, product line and operations. - The announcement came from Oceanside, California, on Sept. 15, 2026. - Chargetech and Gocharge will continue operating as distinct sister brands under the Voltani umbrella. - The brands will keep their established market focus while sharing Voltani’s combined resources.

The details: - Voltani said Chargetech brings enterprise charging infrastructure and device management expertise. - Gocharge adds experiential charging and custom-branded solutions. - Existing Gocharge customers and partners are expected to see continuity during the transition. - Gocharge founder David Walke said the deal gives the brand access to a larger, well-capitalized organization while preserving the brand, team and customer focus. - Voltani’s product portfolio under Chargetech includes charging lockers, charging stations, charging carts, portable power and related technology solutions. - Chargetech serves healthcare, education, government and other institutional customers. - Gocharge offers charging solutions through purchase and rental offerings for businesses, entertainment and sporting events and venues. - Gocharge’s products are used to support engagement, sponsorship and brand-activation objectives. - Andesite Capital Partners owns Voltani. - Andesite CEO John Cappetta said the fit between the businesses is unusually strong and that the combination gives Voltani a broader platform to invest, innovate and grow.

Between the lines: - The deal ties together two adjacent parts of the charging market: enterprise infrastructure and customer-facing experiential charging. - Keeping Chargetech and Gocharge as separate brands suggests Voltani wants to preserve each brand’s positioning rather than merge them immediately. - The structure also points to a strategy of using one platform to serve institutions, venues and event-driven customers with different sales motions.

What's next: - Voltani will integrate the Gocharge operations while maintaining both brands. - Gocharge customers and partners should see transition support backed by Voltani’s larger organization. - The acquisition positions Voltani to pursue further investment and expansion across complementary charging segments.
