Pressemeddelelse fra Kempower Oy
Kempower, a leading rapid charging technology provider, has established a new research and development center at Finland’s Tampere University Campus. The company will initially recruit 15 research and development professionals to work at the facility.
With headquarters and production facilities in the Finnish city of Lahti, Kempower develops rapid EV charging technology for electric cars, buses, off-highway vehicles, and marine vessels. The company’s product development and production are rooted in Finland.
“We believe that collaborating with academia and researchers is vital, and we want to work closely with technology-focused universities and polytechnics. Our goal is to identify the most promising students during their studies and embed them in the Kempower culture by offering internships or thesis opportunities. We hope that the fast-evolving charging technology industry becomes familiar to students at Tampere University Campus and that they follow the development of e-mobility and the skills required to succeed in this market,” said Tomi Ristimäki, CEO, Kempower.
“Close cooperation with universities helps us to stay ahead of the curve as our business quickly scales and expands into new countries. The study fields of Tampere University’s faculty of Technology and Natural Sciences open interesting opportunities for collaboration and recruitment,” Ristimäki continued.
“When you look at a rapid EV charger, you often see only the surface and the hardware, yet the cloud and the backend also play a vital role. Every one of our chargers is connected to the cloud 24/7. We need technology professionals to further develop this solution, both now and in the future,” Ristimäki added.
Kempower is continuing to scale up its production capabilities to meet the strong growth of the e-mobility market. In July 2021, the company announced plans to open a new factory in Lahti, enabling it to scale up production by approximately 500% compared to its current capacity.
