A seasoned expert in the energy and electricity field, Andreos will work closely with management and technical teams to ensure that VoltStorage’s solutions meet the requirements and demands of its target groups and leverage the positive market momentum that is predicted for the nearer future.
The achievements of VoltStorage with its groundbreaking Iron Salt Battery are widely acknowledged by scientific, industrial as well as financial and investor communities.

To further continue the development and shaping of both a future product as well as driving business relations to partners and customers, Andreos will bring in his international expertise in the fields of energy and electricity.
Prior to relocating to Germany and joining VoltStorage, Andreos held team leading and management positions in major automotive companies such as Forvia / Faurecia and also startups such as actnano, being responsible for multidisciplinary teams with top-line ownership, and working alongside tech companies such as Tesla.

Now, with VoltStorage, I see an innovative and groundbreaking technical and commercial solution for long-duration energy storage, which is critically needed at a global, high-volume scale for the ongoing decarbonization of our energy infrastructure—an effort closely tied to the electrification of the transportation industry that I have previously helped to advance.”
