Qelo passes 2 GWh delivered on Kempower ultra-fast chargers in Croatia
The Croatian charge point operator has installed 86 Kempower ultra-fast connectors across 26 sites since November 2023. It expects to be operating at more than 30 locations by the end of the year.
Qelo, a Croatian electric vehicle charging network, has delivered more than 2 GWh of energy through its ultra-fast charging infrastructure, which is supplied by DC charging manufacturer Kempower. Kempower announced the milestone on 10 November and said it was reached in October.
According to Kempower's release, charging volumes across the Qelo network accelerated significantly over the past year, and the 2 GWh milestone was reached three times faster than the first.
Since the two companies began working together in November 2023, they have rolled out 86 ultra-fast charging connectors across 26 sites in Croatia. Qelo is in a major investment cycle to expand its network across the country. It expects to be operating at more than 30 locations by the end of the year, with around 100 ultra-fast charging points for domestic and international EV drivers.
Qelo was founded in 2021 and serves private and business users. It is building a nationwide ultra-fast network and says the electricity it supplies comes from renewable sources.
Predrag Šeatović, Qelo's chief executive, described the company as Croatia's largest Kempower partner. "Kempower's technology has been instrumental in delivering a reliable, scalable and user-friendly charging experience as demand for electric mobility continues to rise," he said.
Igor Ban, Kempower's head of business development for Central and South Eastern Europe, said: "Reaching 2 GWh in such a short period is a strong indication of how quickly the country's EV charging network is developing."
