Short profile to quote

VoltExchange is a free community for private electric-car charging. Instead of paying, members exchange power via a kWh credit account: share your wallbox, earn credit, and charge for free at others' – no subscription, no hidden fees, no profit on the electricity. VoltExchange is built by a small team from Hamburg and Herrnhut and is available at voltexchange.de. It is operated by Progressive Mind GmbH.

„When the digital and the analogue kiss, solutions emerge that serve society and move it forward.“

Arno HoffrichterCo-founder of VoltExchange

Founder team (photo) — Florian Wessling and Arno Hoffrichter have known each other since fifth grade. They have run a joint marketing agency since 2019 and love bringing projects to life that create real value for people. VoltExchange grew out of that attitude: sharing what already exists instead of building new things, connecting people, and bringing the digital and the analogue together.
