Power Upgrade
If your EV charging capacity is limited, you have the option to increase the power output of your charger while it is in operation. By adding new power modules to the existing cabinet, it will offer you a cost effective way to serve more customers.
-
Adaptive Voltage Retrofit
Kempower’s older products did not support adaptive voltage functionality. If you wish to enable this functionality within your existing charging system, it is possible with 800V and 400V vehicles.

Payment Terminal Retrofit
Requirements change fast. If you need to add a card payment solution to your existing charging system, we provide different types of payment options. The payment options are easy to use, install, and uninstall.
Power Upgrade
As the EV market evolves, the demands may change, potentially necessitating an extension of the power capacity initially intended for your Kempower charging system. With the modular design of Kempower charging solutions, augmenting power is simple through the Kempower Power Upgrade service. This service not only extends the system’s power but also contributes to prolonging the system’s life, reducing lifecycle costs, and managing capital risks associated with charging station implementation.
Adaptive Voltage Retrofit
Originally, older Kempower charging systems featuring the Power Unit or Station Charger C500 were designed for charging electric vehicles with 400-volt powertrains. As the prevalence of vehicles equipped with 800-volt powertrains grows, the demand for supporting 800-volt charging is on the rise. Our Adaptive Voltage Retrofit service enables you to adapt to these evolving needs by upgrading your charging system to support both the 400-volt and 800-volt charging ranges without the need for a complete system replacement, thereby extending the system’s lifespan.
Payment Terminal Retrofit
We provide payment terminal solutions that seamlessly integrate into your existing site. Regulatory changes often mandate the presence of payment terminals for existing charging systems in specific regions. Thoughtfully designed payment terminals elevate the customer experience by enabling seamless, contactless transactions and keeping up with the latest payment methods. This ensures convenient access to your payment card services for your customers.
Please note, retrofit services are exclusively offered for already installed and commissioned charging systems. Presently, payment terminal upgrades are available for sites equipped with Kempower DC Satellite Version 1.
