Production

During Q2-21 our development focus has been on implementation and production ramp up of Zaptec Go for the single home market at Westcontrol. We have established an efficient production line and volumes per week have been in-line with our targets.

During the quarter we have also started production of a new version of the Zaptec Pro, our charging system for large parking facilities. Production ramp-up of the new Pro version was slightly delayed mainly due to challenging sourcing of power supply units, resulting in a production stop for 3 weeks. Zaptec has solved this challenge by placing long-term orders with our supplier Westcontrol and production started again late June.

Production cont.

On software technology we have continued our development and implemented various software updates and improvements. The focus has been on the Zaptec Portal, our cloud solution with 70.000 EV chargers, our backend and frontend systems as well as customer facing APPs. A prioritized focus is to improve the user experience on customer facing APPs and user interfaces.

Organisation and partners

Zaptec has 65 employees by the end of Q221 located at the head office in Stavanger and Oslo, and in our 6 subsidiaries in Sweden, Switzerland, UK, Germany, France and Denmark.

During Q2 we have recruited top industry professionals in our subsidiaries in the UK, Germany and Sweden. The acquisition of Novavolt in Switzerland enlightened our company with 9 dedicated colleagues.

Organisation and partners cont.

In Q221 we have implemented Bamboo HR to support the efficiency for our employees in their workplace at home and office. Our HR policy is to offer the world's best careers in technology, brand building and internationalization for talented people with a strong dedication to electrifying the transportation sector.

Zaptec work close with premier partners in the whole EV charging value chain to generate best value for the end users. We trust our partners and our goal is to be professional and make the employees and management in the partner company proud of the business relationship with Zaptec.

Outlook

  • The EV market is growing strongly
  • Zaptec expects this growth to continue due to government push for lower emissions, new electric car models and falling battery pack prices.
  • The AC charging market is very strong as people prefer to charge at home due to convenience and lowest energy prices compared to DC charging.
  • Zaptec has an European strategy and we aim for strong profitable growth with a double digit market share in all the countries where we currently invest.
