In 2024, Loop Global fortified its leadership with strategic hires. Olga Shevorenkova, appointed CEO in June, joined from EVgo, where she served as CFO. Her financial and operational expertise will steer Loop’s growth trajectory. Esther M. Santos, who took the role of Vice President and Head of Sales in September, brings sales leadership from Xos Trucks and Genesis. Brandon Schantz, named General Counsel and Corporate Secretary in August, contributes legal acumen from PulsedIn, Inc. These appointments underscore Loop’s commitment to building a robust executive team.
The Infinity Flash™, launched in May, addresses the rising demand for fast, reliable charging. Delivering up to 100 miles of range in five minutes, it features patented dynamic power sharing to optimize energy use and reduce site power needs. Its sleek design includes a 24-inch display for advertising and branding, appealing to both drivers and businesses.
Loop’s network growth was fueled by partnerships with major clients like AvalonBay Communities, which has installed over 600 chargers since 2020, alongside the City of San Diego and AMLI Residential. This expansion reflects Loop’s ability to serve diverse sectors, from real estate to hospitality.
Geographically, Loop opened a logistics center in Phoenix, Arizona, to enhance efficiency and a headquarters in Abu Dhabi, marking its Middle East entry. Reem Mall in Abu Dhabi will host over 60 chargers, including the Infinity Flash™, aligning with the region’s clean energy goals. These developments highlight Loop’s strategic vision and dedication to sustainable transportation worldwide.
