Kempower and GodEnergi support the electrification of Danske Fragtm\u00e6nd’s lorry fleet with the first of 27 fast charging stations\u00a0<\/h1>\n\n\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n

Finnish manufacturer of DC fast charging systems Kempower has supplied Danske Fragtm\u00e6nd with the infrastructure for its first charging station for electric lorries. The system, which is located at Danske Fragtm\u00e6nd’s depot in Aalborg, Denmark, currently enables up to four lorries to be charged simultaneously and was designed and developed by Kempower’s partner GodEnergi A\/S.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The site has a Kempower satellite charging system with four Kempower satellites, each of which can deliver up to 400 kW of ultra-fast charging. This equates to a range of around 360 km per charging hour. Kempower’s charging infrastructure uses dynamic power sharing, meaning that each connected vehicle receives the maximum available power according to its charging needs, rather than a simple even split. This optimises charging times and ensures that Danske Fragtm\u00e6nd’s trucks are back up and running as quickly as possible, minimising downtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kempower’s charging solutions are also modular and scalable, so that capacity can be increased in the future simply by adding an additional power unit and satellites. This will help Danske Fragtm\u00e6nd to increase its charging capacity in line with the growth of its electric fleet, with preparations already underway to double the number of satellites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The charging station in Aalborg is the first of several stations planned in collaboration with energy supplier OK and with infrastructure supplied by Kempower to support Danske Fragtm\u00e6nd’s transition to a more sustainable logistics company. Charging stations will soon follow in Saksk\u00f8bing, Taastrup, Odense and Aarhus. Danske Fragtm\u00e6nd’s goal is for the entire network to be<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As one of Denmark’s largest road transport players, Danske Fragtm\u00e6nd plays a central role in developing the transport industry towards a more sustainable future. One of the biggest obstacles to the transition to electric heavy goods transport is the lack of an efficient and easily accessible charging infrastructure capable of charging electric trucks quickly enough to maintain normal operations. With the establishment of the charging station in Aalborg, Danske Fragtm\u00e6nd is taking an important first step in driving forward the electrification of lorries in Denmark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the inauguration of the charging station on Thursday 20 March, Danish Transport Minister Thomas Danielsen symbolically put the first electric truck into operation and cut the red ribbon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Heavy goods transport must be part of the green transition, and this requires a strong charging infrastructure. Initiatives like this show the way forward and make it easier for hauliers to choose electricity,\u2019 said Thomas Danielsen, Denmark’s Minister of Transport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018The electrification of HGV transport remains an ongoing challenge, but with the right charging technology and logistics companies committed to positive change, we are confident that electric HGV transport is the future. We are now in a position to provide a charging infrastructure with a higher capacity than before, making the transition inevitable, feasible and increasingly profitable for trucking companies. Together with GodEnergi, we look forward to supporting logistics companies like Danske Fragtm\u00e6nd in the transition of their fleets,\u2019 says Erik Kanerva, Sales Director, Northern Europe, at Kempower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018The electrification of trucking remains an ongoing challenge, but with the right charging technology and logistics companies committed to positive change, we are confident that e-trucking is the future. We are now in a position to provide a charging infrastructure with a higher capacity than before, making the transition inevitable, feasible and increasingly profitable for trucking companies. Together with GodEnergi, we look forward to supporting logistics companies like Danske Fragtm\u00e6nd in the transition of their fleets,\u2019 says Erik Kanerva, Sales Director, Northern Europe, at Kempower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018We have been ensuring efficient freight transport in Denmark for over 100 years, and now we are taking a big step towards a greener future. Our goal is that all of our 27 terminals will eventually be equipped with a charging station. We are starting here in Aalborg, but more will follow soon. For us, it’s about making it easier for our fleet operators to switch to electric trucks by ensuring a strong charging infrastructure,\u2019 says Bjarne Krogh Jensen, CEO of Danske Fragtm\u00e6nd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018We are proud to be working with Danske Fragtm\u00e6nd to create a solid charging infrastructure for electric trucks. The green transition in the transport sector requires investment and partnerships, and we look forward to continuing to develop solutions that make it easier for the transport industry to choose electricity as a fuel,\u2019 says Anders Skandbo Espersen, OK’s Sales Manager for e-mobility in heavy transport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The charging stations will not only contribute to reducing Danske Fragtm\u00e6nd’s CO2 emissions, but also support a broader transition to more climate-friendly transport solutions in Denmark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
