Volatus Infrastructure, LLC has signed a letter of intent (LOI) with GREENPORT® International Airport and Technology Center to build an electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) vertiport as part of their planned 5,426-acre phase one development plans. The vertiport will include Volatus’ modularly designed terminal building and landing pad with their vehicle-agnostic charging station. The teams hope to break ground yet this year which would allow for the vertiport to be open in early 2024. 

“This partnership is revolutionary for the AAM industry,” said Grant Fisk, Volatus Infrastructure Co-Founder. “GREENPORT® is going to set the tone and create standards for the US vertiport market by being one of the first FAA-compliant, fully operational eVTOL vertiports open.” 

“GREENPORT® International Airport and Technology Center is excited to bring the second commercial Vertiport in the United States to Central Texas and provide the required intelligent infrastructure to support the U.S. AAM industry indefinitely,” reported Jim Carpenter, CEO of GREENPORT® International Airport. 

Central Texas Airport Holdings Inc is developing GREENPORT® International Airport and Technology Center on 5,000 acres in northwest Bastrop County, Texas, 17 miles from Central Austin in the midst of one of the world’s most important and rapidly growing technology and business hubs. 

Phase I will consist of state-of-the-art, privately owned GREENPORT® International Airport, purpose-built on 2,605 acres to accommodate larger business jets and anchor the 2,809-acre GREENPORT® International Technology Center, designed to uniquely appeal to businesses flooding into the Austin Metropolitan Statistical Area. The airport will have a 10,000-foot runway with a planned 2.9 million square feet of hangar space, 9 million square feet of data center space and research-and-development, and small-office building space, much of it with “through the fence” access. The development will also feature a U.S. Customs Port of Entry. 

GREENPORT® is a compelling solution to the ever-increasing demand for space by technology, aviation, and defense organizations planning or considering locations in Central Texas. Designed in all respects to be environmentally sustainable, GREENPORT® will employ cutting-edge security systems and a self-contained communications and power microgrid.
