EXHIBITOR Spotlight: KEMPOWER

Please tell us a little about your company and what you will be showcasing at TOC Europe 2024

At Kempower, we design and manufacture reliable and user-friendly DC fast-charging solutions for electric vehicles. Our vision is to create the world’s most desired EV charging solutions for everyone, everywhere. Our product development and production are based in Finland and in the U.S., with the majority of our materials and components sourced locally. We focus on all areas of e-mobility, from electric cars, trucks, and buses to machines and marine. Our modular and scalable charging system and world-class software are designed by EV drivers for EV drivers, enabling the best user experience for our customers around the world.

At TOC Europe 2024, we will present Kempower's take on the electrification of ports. How the electrification of port machinery contributes to achieving environmental goals and how Kempower offers a best-in-class charging solution with hardware and integrated software for efficient use of port fleet.

Who are you hoping to meet?

We are looking to talk to different port operators about their status in electrification and to find the best possible solutions for their use. We hope to talk to OEMs to be able to ensure the best possible interoperability and integrations to OEM's back ends. We are also looking to meet and discuss with software companies making the Terminal Operating Systems to discuss how Kempower ChargEye software can bring great charging features to TOS’s back end.

Why is the European market so important to you?

We are of course looking at the global market, but as Kempower is from Finland, Europe is one of our focus markets and therefore our first interest. Europe is also at the forefront of electrification, so it is a very natural area of interest for us.

What are your plans, goals, and ambitions for the rest of 2024 and beyond?

In 2024, we want to establish Kempower as the innovator in port electrification and deliver the best solutions for the operation of electric port machinery. In addition to our user-friendly and reliable hardware features, we want to bring our state-of-the-art software features to ports, enabling cost-effective use of electric machines.

We are continuously developing our port offerings to an even higher level by listening to our port customers’ needs.

Could you provide an overview of your company’s current sustainability initiatives related to ports and terminals?

Kempower has recognized the UN Sustainable Development Goals that best connect to our operations and that we can make the most change with. We strive to increase the positive impact of our operations and to reduce the negative effects and thus contribute to the achievement of selected goals. Kempower is committed to being aware of obligations and rules set by the legislation and fulfilling these according to our best capabilities.

Our charging solutions are built to scale up with the increasing number of electric vehicles and our modular approach means the standardized building blocks can be used across our entire product range, enabling EV charging providers to create various types of chargers and charging systems. Our technology is scalable, so our customers can make smaller initial investments and add additional power modules later as the business grows.

Kempower’s native IoT chargers can be updated remotely and in real-time, reassuring our customers that their chosen solutions are future-proofed and all the time cloud connected.

Kempower reduces carbon emissions in urban areas by enabling the DC fast charging of electric vehicles and machines. We are committed to being a forerunner in responsible production and clean tech, investing in continuous product development. We recognize recyclability as one of the key areas of our sustainability goals. Continuous assessment of our products’ recyclability is one important aspect of this.

We also participate in the ZEPA Alliance to develop sustainability in the ports.
