Finland- Kempower Oyj., an EV fast-charging solutions provider, has partnered with Zeon Electric Private Limited., a charge points operator (CPO) in India, to deploy EV fast-charging solutions across the country. This collaboration will address the growing need for reliable and scalable charging infrastructure, with a focus on India’s strategic highway network.
Partners aim to establish over 20 EV charging hubs in India in the coming years, with the first site already operational in Sira, Karnataka. Kempower provides advanced DC fast-charging solutions, delivering 200-400 kW of power with 6-8 outputs per site.

Kempower and Zeon share a commitment to sustainable mobility. As part of the long-term vision, the companies have also signed a service agreement, ensuring ongoing maintenance and support for the charging infrastructure.
Mr. Akhil Venkateshwaran, Director and CTO, Zeon, said, “In line with our philosophy of rolling out best-in-class DC charging infrastructure, we are very proud to be partnering with Kempower for their high-quality, user-friendly fast-charging solutions. Apart from our sales and service partnership, we are excited to roll out the Kempower Satellite charging systems along some of our important highway stations in our own DC charger network and continue to provide the Indian customer with a premium, hassle-free experience. We welcome Kempower to the Indian EV ecosystem, and we look forward to some electrifying days ahead.”
Since the start of the company in early 2020, Zeon has been committed to addressing the evolving demands of the public EV charging market. With a focus on highway charging infrastructure, Zeon started with simple charging stations but has steadily expanded its offerings to match the premium charging solutions that EV drivers expect.

As the adoption of EVs continues to rise in India, the need for robust, accessible charging solutions has never been more pressing.
