Neste will use EV charging tech company Kempower to build the network, which will be installed at Neste service stations along main roads in Finland. Neste will also offer Kempower charging solutions to Neste retailers.
Kempower will supply fellow Finnish company Neste with scalable and modular high-power EV charging solutions, as well as ChargEye, the company’s cloud-based charging management system. Kempower estimates the contract to be worth more than €4m over the next two years.
Neste’s service station network, with more than 800 service stations, is the largest and most extensive in Finland.
Neste launched its Neste Charging service including smart charging solutions in February 2022 for logistics companies and their subcontractors operating in Finland.
In May, the first workplace EV charging solutions were introduced at Neste’s Porvoo refinery and the company’s headquarters in Espoo. Neste says its new MY renewable charging stations have been developed to satisfy customer needs, and fit seamlessly into the Neste service station network, which buys all of its electricity from renewable energy sources.
