Kempower signs three year charging framework with APM Terminals for global port network
By Eve
Kempower has signed a three year global framework agreement to supply DC fast charging infrastructure to APM Terminals for its container terminal network. The agreement covers high power charging systems for selected terminals as APM Terminals transitions diesel powered container handling equipment to battery electric alternatives, with first pilot projects underway at terminals in Mexico, Morocco and Peru. The framework does not include binding order volumes, with APM Terminals placing orders according to investment plans and Kempower disclosing significant confirmed orders under its disclosure policy.
Why it matters
The framework establishes Kempower as a preferred supplier for a major global port operator's electrification programme, opening a pipeline of potential orders across APM Terminals' network as it targets net zero by 2040. The non binding structure means actual order volumes remain uncertain, but the three year term and pilot deployments signal sustained procurement activity in the maritime logistics sector.

Kempower and Evergreen Mobility partner to build French heavy-duty charging network
DC fast charging manufacturer Kempower has partnered with French heavy-duty charging specialist Evergreen Mobility to develop a charging network across France. The partnership addresses a critical infrastructure gap, as Europe has only around 730 public truck chargers above 350 kW but needs an estimated 35,000 megawatt chargers by 2030, while EU registrations of electrically chargeable trucks rose 47.7% in the first half of 2026. France's first sites with Kempower megawatt chargers have been installed at a public truck stop in Lapalisse on the N7 in Allier and at a Kimmel Transport depot in Thal-Drulingen, both equipped with Kempower Mega Satellites operating at 250 kW but scalable to 1.2 megawatts, plus four Kempower Satellites each delivering up to 300 kW peak power.
Why it matters
This partnership signals significant procurement opportunities in the French heavy-duty charging market, with Kempower's distributed DC architecture and dynamic power sharing offering a scalable model for both public and depot installations. The 35,000 megawatt charger requirement by 2030 represents a substantial pipeline for CPOs and equipment suppliers targeting the commercial vehicle segment.
