(Lahti, Finland, 12 January 2023) - Kempower has grown rapidly in Europe during the year 2022. The company will continue to expand its business also in the future to meet market demand. Kempower currently has close to 14 000 square meters of production, laboratory, and office space across two factories in Lahti, Finland.

“According to our recent survey of European EV drivers, the Kempower brand has strengthened in the markets: Kempower is a good match and highly-valued charging brand for European heavy users. We want to do our best to meet market demand, which is why we are now exploring options to expand production in Europe. We believe that our proven agile and scalable production model is a good basis for meeting demand in the years to come,” states Tomi Ristimäki, CEO, Kempower.

In parallel with the European expansion plans, Kempower continues to establish operations in the United States as previously announced. Kempower targets to establish operations in the US by the end of the year 2023. The plan includes Kempower’s own legal entity and a local assembly of Kempower’s charging solutions.
