With existing offices in Sweden, Norway, the UK, the Netherlands, France, and other European markets, the Düsseldorf expansion positions Kempower to meet surging demand for EV infrastructure in Germany.

This different approach involves installing Kempower's charging equipment below ground, effectively preserving truck parking space at logistics depots.

The high-powered 1.2 MW chargers are expected to go into series production later this year and initially, will be rolled out in Finland and then later to other parts of Europe and North America.

Kempower is supplying 110 of its advanced DC fast-charging solutions (150 kW Satellite Chargers) for an electric bus depot project in Perth. Addelec will be responsible for the installation and maintenance of Kempower’s chargers.

With this expansion, Kempower is targeting the Turkish charge point operators, municipalities and public transport authorities. This is a milestone for Kempower, which continues to enter new markets as part of its strategy for growth.

Last month, Fastcharge opened the country's first electric-truck-dedicated charging hub, just outside of Oslo. Kempower installed the equipment (high-powered Satellite DC chargers) but the smart e-mobility solutions provider Wennstrom, is responsible for the service and maintenance of the EV charging infrastructure.

There was plenty to report from the 2024 edition of the Advanced Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo held at the Las Vegas Convention Center between May 20-23.

The high-powered 1.2 MW chargers are expected to go into series production later this year and initially, will be rolled out in Finland and then later to other parts of Europe and North America.

This is Kempower’s second factory but the first in North America with the primary facility in Lahti, Finland. This expansion will further help Kempower to service the North American market with its Kempower C- and S-Series range of electric chargers.

Under the themes of “energy transition and sustainable mobility”, the European public transport industry met to demonstrate its new sustainable products/technologies as the sector looks to rapidly decarbonise to meet climate pledges outlined in the European Green Deal.

Kempower has equipped one of Europe’s largest electric bus depots in Via Ferrarese, Bologna, with 20 DC bottom-up pantograph chargers. Significantly, this is the first bus depot in Italy to utilise charging equipment from Kempower.

Kempower expects to offer boosted charging performance with its next-generation DC fast charging technology. Series production is set for late Q1 2024 in the Lahti plant in Finland and Q2 2024 in the North Carolina factory in the USA.
