Kempower 2.0: Updated strategy and financial targets for 2026–2030, with ambition to become a top 3 global provider in DC fast charging

Revenue growth target of 15-25% CAGR and operative EBIT margin target of 10-15% by 2030, anchored on a DC fast charging market doubling to over EUR 10 billion.

Kempower today announces an updated strategy – Kempower 2.0 – and new long-term financial targets for 2026-2030. The strategy evolves Kempower from a European hardware-focused player into a balanced global lifecycle leader in DC fast charging, with an ambition to reach a top 3 global position by 2030.

Kempower estimates that the DC fast charging market in Europe, North America and Asia-Pacific (excluding China) will grow from approximately EUR 4.5 billion in 2025 to EUR 10 billion or more by 2030, at a 10-25% CAGR depending on different Battery Electric Vehicle adoption scenarios. Market growth is structurally supported by tightening CO₂ emissions regulations, total cost of ownership advantages over internal combustion vehicles, energy security objectives, and public and private capital availability for charging infrastructure.

New financial targets for 2026–2030:  

• Revenue growth: 15-25% CAGR over 2025–2030, in constant currency, range based on different market growth scenarios. Kempower targets above-market revenue growth, and the range reflects Kempower's target performance across different market scenarios.
• Profitability: Operative EBIT margin of 10-15% by 2030, driven by operating leverage, aftermarket mix, productivity and disciplined reinvestment
• Dividends: No dividends in the short term. Capital reinvested to compound long-term value

Kempower 2.0: Company’s evolution is based on three strategic shifts

• Geographic balance: From Europe-centric (approximately 82% of 2025 revenue) to more balanced, diversified revenues across Europe, North America and Asia-Pacific by 2030
• Business model: From one-time hardware sales (aftermarket approximately 5% of 2025 revenue) to a full lifecycle model. Aftermarket and services revenue is expected to grow above Kempower average CAGR, driven by an installed base estimated to expand more than 2.5 times by 2030.
• Operating focus: From build-the-platform growth to sustained profitable growth and disciplined execution.

“Kempower 2.0 is a clear, ambitious evolution – building off a strong foundation and propelled by our mission to accelerate the transition to electric mobility. We have built a proven leadership position in DC fast charging with differentiated distributed charging technology, the industry’s strongest combination of hardware-services-software, and a blue-chip customer base. We are in a market that is projected to double by 2030. Our task now is to translate this foundation and potential into sustained profitable growth – by extending our position in Europe, scaling materially in North America and Asia-Pacific, building a recurring lifecycle business on a rapidly growing installed base, and executing with discipline at start-up speed. We are setting targets that are designed to compound shareholder value,” says Bhasker Kaushal, CEO of Kempower.
