Kempower to deliver fast charging technology to six electric bus depots in Belgium with Powerland
22.6.2022 09:30:00 EEST | Kempower Oyj | Press release
In Flanders, the Flemish part of Belgium, bus operators can receive an annual compensation for switching from a diesel bus to a battery-electric or fuel cell bus. The funding agreement is part of the Flemish Climate Plan where public transport plays an important role. It has been estimated that the subsidy would add 300 electric buses in Flanders in the next three years and reduce CO2 emissions by 50,000 tonnes.
Kempower’s EV fast charging technology will be used to charge Ferry Cars’ and Coachpartners’ electric buses in Belgium. The S-Series charging satellites are connected to Kempower ChargEye, which is a unique remote control platform for electric bus depots. With the platform, charging can be monitored and controlled in real time and the available power can be dynamically distributed to the buses that need charging the most.
The installations at the depots will begin later in 2022. The projects are done in cooperation with Kempower’s partners Powerland and Vandotec NV.
“We are pleased to be involved in the development of cleaner public transport in Belgium and to support the region in reaching its climate goals. These projects are a good continuation of our previous depot project in the country and further strengthen our position in the Benelux area,” says Kempower’s CEO Tomi Ristimäki.

Greenspot and Kempower to provide 30 fast-charging sites at retail stores across France by the end of 20276.11.2026 10:00:00 EET | Press release
The DC fast charging manufacturer Kempower is supplying fast chargers to French charge point operator Greenspot for deployment across its network at several types of sites including large retail stores and supermarkets. The first deployment covers 30 stations throughout France by the end of 2027, all built on the same standardized Kempower DC fact charging architecture, designed for fast roll-out and efficient charging while drivers do their shopping. Each of the Kempower sites uses an identical configuration, replicated across the network: a 200 kW Kempower Power Unit paired with two dual Satellites, providing four charging points. Designed for retailers with medium-sized car parks, the configuration connects to the grid under France’s medium-power “tarif jaune” supply, with no need for a transformer substation. The result is faster commissioning of sites, lower investment and fast charging for drivers while they shop. For retailers, it is expected that the service will attract new cu
Greenspot ja Kempower toteuttavat 30 pikalatauspistettä vähittäiskauppojen yhteyteen Ranskassa6.11.2026 10:00:00 EET | Tiedote
Kempower toimittaa pikalatureita ranskalaiselle latauspisteoperaattorille Greenspotille asennettavaksi sen latausverkostoon erilaisiin kohteisiin, kuten suuriin vähittäiskauppoihin ja supermarketteihin. Ensimmäisessä vaiheessa on tarkoitus asentaa 30 latausasemaa eri puolille Ranskaa vuoden 2027 loppuun mennessä. Kaikki latausasemat perustuvat samaan Kempowerin DC-pikalatausstandardoituun arkkitehtuuriin, joka on suunniteltu nopeaa käyttöönottoa ja tehokasta lataamista varten kuljettajien ostoskäyntien aikana. Kaikilla verkoston latausasemilla on yhtenäinen kokoonpano: 200 kW:n Kempowerin tehoyksikkö yhdistettynä kahteen tuplasatelliittiin, jossa on neljä latauspistettä. Keskikokoisia pysäköintialueita hallinnoiville vähittäiskauppiaille suunniteltu kokoonpano voidaan liittää sähköverkkoon Ranskan keskitehoisen keltaisen sähkötariffijärjestelmän (Tarif Jaune) mukaisesti ilman muuntaja-asemaa. Ratkaisun ansiosta asemien käyttöönotto on nopeampaa, investoinnit pienempiä ja kuljettajat vo
