"With Kinpo Group, we have a trusted manufacturing partner, and now with this expanded partnership we have a development partner who we believe will enable us to bring our portfolio of world-class EV charging solutions to market faster while driving significant product cost and operating expense savings - all with no compromises to our leading quality, reliability, and durability standards."
Jerry Hsu, Chairman of AcBel, stated, "This year marks a year of transformation for AcBel. The collaboration with ChargePoint not only demonstrates AcBel's expertise in design for EV business, but also shows a great example of utilizing our group resources from different aspects. Furthermore, this is just the beginning, and there will be more projects and cooperation among AcBel, Kinpo and ChargePoint."
Andrew Chen, CEO and General Manager of Kinpo Group, commented, "Combining Kinpo's communication and automation production technology with AcBel's power design capabilities and ChargePoint's market-leading position, we believe this strong alliance will significantly increase Kinpo Group's activity in the EV charging market."
