The company will showcase its National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI)-compliant DC charging solutions in its first North American event since announcing its US expansion plans.
Kempower will be showcasing its modular and scalable Kempower Satellite charging system. It consists of a centralised Kempower Power Unit which offers up to 600kW DC power, which can be dynamically distributed between as many as eight charging outputs via charging satellites with 25 kW granularity. It is designed to be easily installed in most locations, even charging sites with limited space. In addition, Kempower Satellite charging points have user-friendly cable management and intuitive touch screens. Visitors at EVS36 can also learn more about Kempower ChargEye, a cloud-based charging management system.
The expo is the first North American industry event Kempower will attend following the announcement of its plans to expand into the US by opening a new charging station production facility in Durham, North Carolina. The new facility will produce NEVI-compliant, reliable, and user-friendly DC fast charging solutions for electric cars, trucks, buses, boats, and machines. The company will start production at the new factory by the end of 2023 and has a planned project investment of approximately US$40 million during the next five years. With the new facility of over 154,000 square feet, Kempower will create approximately 300 new jobs in Durham. Staff recruitment is underway.
The establishment of the new production facility is part of the company’s strategy to become a top five player in Europe and North America by 2030.
