⚡VOLT: Powering the next chapter of your existing locomotive fleet

Jacob Dahle Avatar

At Dayton-Phoenix Group, we’ve quietly been working on something big. It’s called VOLT: a next-generation battery-electric locomotive solution focused on reducing fuel consumption, cutting emissions, and giving your existing locomotives a flexible new lease on life.

Designed around the real-world needs of freight railroads, VOLT combines battery-electric innovation with drop-in simplicity and scalable performance with swappable battery-storage units that don’t require waiting for long charge times.

Imagine a cost-effective path to decarbonization that:
✅ Enables battery-electric, hybrid, or standalone diesel-electric operation — seamlessly
✅ Delivers measurable fuel savings and real ROI
✅ Integrates into your current locomotive platforms with minimal modifications
✅ Doesn’t slow down your current operations by utilizing portable and modular quick-swapping battery-storage units

We’re excited to share more at the 2025 RSI Expo & Conference. If you’re ready to modernize your fleet with the flexibility of hybrid power and less diesel, let’s talk.
