Orion Announces Voltrek Expansion to Third U.S. Region in Response to Continuing Demand; William B. Rigsby Heads Jacksonville Office

MANITOWOC, Wis., Sept. 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Orion Energy Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: OESX) (), a provider of energy-efficient LED lighting, electric vehicle (EV) charging stations and maintenance services solutions, today announced that its Voltrek division is responding to continuing demand by expanding its EV Charging and Electrical Infrastructure field sales and service presence to the Southeastern United States.

The expansion builds on the Orion Energy Systems 12-year presence in Jacksonville, FL. Orion’s Voltrek division is now establishing a Jacksonville, FL., office, headed by William B. Rigsby, Director of Inside Sales and Customer Service. Reporting to Voltrek President Kathleen Connors, Mr. Rigsby heads the company’s office in Jacksonville, Florida. Orion/Voltrek’s arrival in the Southeast expands the division into its third region in the nation. Orion/Voltrek’s Northeastern facility is in Lawrence, MA., while Orion’s Midwestern national headquarters is in Manitowoc, WI.

Mr. Rigsby has a track record of significant sales growth and market expansion in the Electric Vehicle charging industry. He comes to Orion/Voltrek from NovaCHARGE, Inc., where he was repeatedly promoted over 15 years to Vice President of Sales Operations and Inside Sales. Mr. Rigsby earned his BA at the University of Georgia.

“Our expanding geographic footprint means that Orion/Voltrek professionals are on the ground partnering with customers practically wherever they are located,” said Orion Chief Executive Officer Sally Washlow. “We are extremely pleased that a successful producer like William Rigsby is spearheading our initiative in such an important region of the United States.”

Mr. Rigsby’s arrival follows on the heels of last month’s federal guidance emphasizing state-level decisions regarding allocation of $5 billion in public funds to EV charging locations that best provide dependable charging infrastructure. The federal standards closely mirror those long established by Orion’s Voltrek division. Eighty-four percent of the $5 billion is still to be allocated, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation.

“Orion/Voltrek is expanding in parallel with the market, as more and more decision-making about EV Charging and Infrastructure gravitates to the state level,” said Kathleen Connors, President of Orion’s Voltrek division. “Our Southeast initiative under Will Rigsby illustrates Orion/Voltrek’s commitment to be where our customers are.”
