Maximize your business – switch today!

Convert the low-demand CHAdeMO to high-revenue CCS. Every unused CHAdeMO plug is a lost sales opportunity.

CCS is the global standard for DC fast-charging, and your customers demand it.

Unlock peak performance: seamless CHAdeMO to CCS2 upgrade

Kempower makes the switch from CHAdeMO to the global CCS2 standard painless. Our specialized retrofit kits allow certified partners to perform a quick, streamlined installation installation on your existing Kempower DC fast chargers. Future-proof your network and accelerate your ROI today.

Why make the switch from CHAdeMO to CCS2?

CHAdeMO is making you lose revenue. The CHAdeMO to CCS2 upgrade is critical for competitive survival and profit maximization.

CHAdeMO usage is declining sharply in Europe and globally. Today, CHAdeMO accounts for less than 30% of charging plugs in Europe and under 15% of new installations, while CCS dominates new deployments. [gireve.com] 

  • Maximize revenue: Switch to CCS2 to sell on average 8 times more energy than with CHAdeMO
  • Increase utilization: CCS is the future-proof OEM standard for EVs. CCS plugs utilization is on average 3 times higher compared to CHAdeMO plugs
  • Secure market share & elevate the customer experience: More CCS availability reduces queues, frees up space for more customers, improves the overall customer experience and keeps the EV drivers coming back.
  • Future-Proof Your Business: CHAdeMO is being phased out in most markets; CCS is now the standard for nearly all new EVs

CHAdeMO vs. CCS – stranded assets vs. high-utilization profit

CHAdeMO is yesterday’s technology, bult for early EVs such as Nissan Leaf. The slow speed and declining market share of CHAdeMO make it a low-value, low-utilization option. CCS is the future standard for DC fast-charging.

  • With 200 A and 300 A charging cable variants, CCS2 offers up to 160 kW / 400 kW charging speeds, compared to CHAdeMO’s 50 kW
  • CCS is the preferred choice for EV drivers and DC fast-charging networks. [ev-america.com] 
  • In Europe, the most new DC fast-charging sites are CCS-only; while the CHAdeMO connectors no longer as popular and often idle.
