Welcome to
Planet Cool
Our vision is a fully electric
world of transportation.
As our world keeps moving forward with ever advancing technology, so do we.
More people are constantly on the move, but we think that it shouldn’t compromise the wellbeing of our planet or us. We believe there are ways to make moving sustainable.
Our way of making sustainable movement a reality is rooted in something we have a deep understanding of – electricity.
Kempower designs and manufactures fast charging solutions for electric vehicles and machines. We’re a team of electric vehicle enthusiasts with a deep understanding of the charging market and a hands-on mentality.
Our product development and production are rooted in Finland with the majority of our materials & components sourced locally. We focus on all areas of transportation, from personal cars and commercial vehicles to mining equipment, boats and motorsport.
With 70 years of experience in perfecting power sources, we set the bar high in engineering and user-experience design.
Our mission and purpose
We envision a society powered by fully electric transportation, making the world cleaner and more sustainable. We want to create an electric vehicle charging infrastructure that is both extensive and reliable, meaning that EVs become the norm.
Our values
-
Together
Teamwork across borders creates success, with joy in everything we do. -
Impact
Our passion is to help customers move towards an emission-free future. We are driven by customer success. -
Integrity
Responsibility, sustainability, and honesty are our building blocks of integrity -
Courage

Technology
Our DC fast charging EV solutions are built to scale up with the increasing number of electric vehicles.
Our modular approach means the standardized building blocks can be used across our entire product range, enabling EV charging providers to create various types of chargers and charging systems.
Our technology is scalable, so our customers can make smaller initial investments and add additional power modules later as the business grows.
Our native IoT chargers can be updated remotely and in real-time, reassuring our customers that their chosen solutions are futureproofed and all the time cloud connected.
The modularity of our products ensures they have a small footprint, allowing our customers to make use of limited space in densely populated areas and choose solutions that drive meaningful electrification.
Product recycling
Kempower is committed to being the front-runner in responsible production and clean tech, investing in continuous production development. We recognize recyclability as one of the key areas of our sustainability goals. Continuous assessment of our products recyclability is one important aspect of this.
According to the report made by Finnish industrial recycling company Kuusakoski Oy, the recyclability rate of our Kempower Movable Chargers (taking metals, precious metals, cars, batteries, tyres, electric equipment, plastics, construction waste, energy waste and wood into account) charger is currently at total of 99.61%.
We aim at 99% end of lifetime recyclability rate in all our product groups.
Our commitment to the UN sustainable development goals
Kempower has recognized the UN Sustainable Development Goals that best connect to our operations and that we can make the most change with. We strive to increase the positive impact of our operations and to reduce the negative effects and thus contribute to the achievement of selected goals. Kempower is committed to being aware of obligations and rules set by the legislation and fulfilling these according to our best capabilities.
Committed to 100% Carbon Neutrality
Kempower’s long-term target is to be 100% carbon neutral. We are committed to annually reduce the relative carbon footprint per EUR 1 million of sales. Long-term emission monitoring, follow-up actions and setting continuous targets are in the core of our commitment.
We transfer to the use of 100% fossil free electricity in all locations by 2025. We have established a carbon footprint calculation to follow-up emissions and to set targets according to the GHG protocol.
Kempower aims for 100% recyclability in company’s own operations. We strive towards this goal most prominently by reducing the amount of landfill waste and plastic packaging and transferring to bio-degradable plastics.
We strive towards 100% recyclability by reducing the amount of landfill waste to 0% by 2025 from the level of the year 2021. We will also reduce plastic packaging with 50% by 2025 compared from the level of the year 2021. In our production and logistics, we transfer to bio and bio-degradable plastics, when economically viable.
Responsible products, enabling a society powered by 100% electric transportation
Kempower reduces carbon emissions in urban areas by enabling the DC fast charging of electric vehicles and machines. Based on the data provided by The Finnish Transport and Communications Agency Traficom, the amount of fully electric passenger car’s CO2 emissions is 86 % smaller per 100 kilometres compared to ICE (internal combustion engine) passenger cars.
Kempower is committed to being the front-runner in clean tech, investing in continuous technology development and innovations. Our products are designed to last. Integrated, advanced cloud services make sure that updates and maintenance needs of our IoT chargers can be always monitored 100% remotely.
Our native IoT chargers can be updated remotely and in real-time via Kempower ChargEye cloud service, reassuring our customers that their chosen solutions are futureproofed and cloud connected at all times. The 100 % remote control via ChargEye also minimizes the need for maintenance travel and extends the lifecycle of Kempower charging solutions.
We have set up an ambitious target of 99% end of lifetime recyclability rate for all Kempower EV chargers. According to a recycling rate analysis carried out by Kuusakoski Oy, the recycling rate of Kempower T-Series is 99.61%. Kempower will carry out similar recycling assessments for all company’s products.
Kempower has the following certifications: ISO9001 Quality, ISO14001 Environmental, ISO45001 Health & Safety.
The Best Workplace for Future Professionals
Kempower promotes a diverse and safe working environment with family-friendly working culture. We offer healthcare supporting both physical and mental health. We also support leisure activities in the field of sports and culture.
We are committed to reducing and maintaining the Total Recordable Injuries (TRI) rate at 0. We maintain the first aid skills of our staff, aiming at 100 % share of trained personnel. We believe that this is one way to reduce the serious harm in the case of accidents and other medical emergencies.
We feel that well-being and caring for well-being belongs to everyone. We offer each employee the opportunity to do 8 hours of optional volunteer work each year.
