Caverion is a market leader for public charging stations in Norway. Last year, the company installed one in three fast charging stations there and has service contracts for around half of all chargers in operation.

The company's e-mobility team sees great opportunities in ADSE's solution. "The limited capacity of the power grid is an obstacle to the use of fast-charging stations in many places. With this solution, it is possible to set up ultra-fast charging," says Ove Kjelby, head of sales, e-mobility at Caverion.

With its integrated batteries, Ads-Tec Energy ChargeBox and ChargePost deliver fast charging whenever it is required. By using the existing grid infrastructure, the company's chargers offer many times the charging capacity of the grid’s power connection, making it possible to charge EVs in minutes. Furthermore, these solutions are a cost-effective way to upgrade older, low-power AC charging stations. They also offer the flexibility of being positioned up to 300 metres away from the grid connection.

Ads-Tec Energy and Caverion have been working together in Norway since February 2024 and based on this positive experience, the partnership is now being extended further in the Nordic region.

More than 20% of vehicles on Norwegian roads are now electric cars. According to an estimate from 2022, the country will need between 6,000 and 10,000 fast charging points for EVs by 2030. Fast charging solutions, such as those from ADSE, make a decisive contribution to achieving this goal because they can be installed quickly and without upgrading the power grid.
