Denmark’s Electric Truck Revolution Gets a Megawatt Boost in 2024

A major expansion of electric truck charging infrastructure has taken place across Denmark in 2024. Kempower and GodEnergi joined forces to equip 27 locations with advanced charging solutions. Among the new installations is Denmark’s first megawatt charger for electric trucks, now operational in Odense.

The partnership between Kempower and GodEnergi began in 2022, with the latter becoming an official sales and service partner the following year. Since then, the companies have focused on scaling up charging networks for heavy transport, including buses and refuse vehicles.

One of the largest projects involved Tide Bus in Aalborg, where a station with 124 charging points was built. Intelligent charging management ensures efficient energy distribution across the fleet. Another key installation serves Gladsaxe Operations Department, featuring 27 outlets for garbage and crane trucks, supported by a 2,000-amp power supply. GodEnergi also delivered two depot charging stations for Lantmännen Schulstad, a bread producer shifting entirely to electric trucks. The company’s expertise extends beyond hardware, offering end-to-end solutions with in-house project managers, electricians, and contractors. CEO Jan Darville highlighted Kempower’s efficiency and smart technology as key reasons for their collaboration. Danfoss has further supported the transition by establishing five sites combining depots with fast charging. These allow trucks to load, unload, and recharge simultaneously, reducing downtime. Meanwhile, GodEnergi’s broader network now spans Denmark, Sweden, and Norway, with over 7,000 charging points—including 1,500 DC fast chargers for heavy vehicles and public use.

The 2024 rollout marks a significant step in Denmark’s electric transport infrastructure. The new stations, including the megawatt charger in Odense, enable faster adoption of zero-emission trucks. Companies like Tide Bus, Gladsaxe Operations, and Lantmännen Schulstad now have the charging capacity to support their fleets.
