Tomi Rantasaari's Voltti, a cutting-edge integrated EV charger featuring advanced battery storage and AI-assisted power management, has been recognized with the Iron A' Design Award 2025 for its innovative approach to sustainable urban charging solutions, blending efficiency, aesthetics, and smart technology.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Voltti, designed by Tomi Rantasaari, has emerged as a groundbreaking solution in the realm of electric vehicle infrastructure, earning the prestigious Iron A' Generative, Algorithmic, Parametric, and AI-Assisted Design Award for 2025. Developed in Rome and finalized in February 2025, Voltti addresses the growing need for efficient, grid-independent EV charging in urban environments. Its sleek, space-saving form integrates seamlessly into modern cityscapes, offering both aesthetic appeal and practical functionality.
At the core of Voltti's innovation is its 100 kWh solid-state battery storage system, which enables 150 kW DC fast charging while minimizing dependency on the power grid. The charger employs AI-driven power management to dynamically adjust energy distribution based on real-time grid demand, vehicle requirements, and energy pricing. This ensures rapid, uninterrupted charging-even during peak usage-while reducing strain on local energy infrastructure. Users benefit from a plug-and-charge experience, intuitive touchscreen controls, and mobile app connectivity for real-time monitoring and scheduling.
Voltti's development was driven by extensive research into sustainable energy, smart mobility, and user convenience. The design team overcame significant challenges, including balancing high-performance energy storage with urban integration and navigating regulatory and infrastructure constraints. By leveraging parametric modeling, AI-assisted photo generation, and advanced composite materials, Voltti sets a new standard for urban EV charging stations-combining efficiency, durability, and visual harmony. The Iron A' Design Award recognizes Voltti's contribution to the future of sustainable mobility and its potential to transform city charging networks worldwide.
