What AmpSociety does

AmpSociety (AmpSociety International AB) is a Swedish EV charging hardware company that designs, manufactures, and distributes the Amp5 modular charging system. Founded in 2024 as a sister company to ChargeNode within the ChargeNode group, it commercializes charging technology developed from operational data across more than 60,000 charge points managed by ChargeNode. The company is headquartered in Mölndal, Sweden, and operates with 11-50 employees.

The Amp5 system consists of three components — a SmartHub central controller, ChargePod charging modules with 1-2 ports and 4.3-inch displays, and ConnectBar bus-bar connectors — delivering up to 22kW per outlet and scaling up to 54 charge points per SmartHub. The architecture integrates load balancing, Type B residual current protection, surge protection, emergency stop, and dual 4G/LAN connectivity into a single pre-tested package, with native OCPP 1.6J and 2.0.1 support avoiding proxy dependency. The product is manufactured by NOTE in Lund, Sweden, using Hydro Circal recycled aluminum. Complementary offerings include AmpStudio (a 3D planning tool on Unreal Engine) and AmpPortal (operator management portal).

AmpSociety generates revenue primarily through hardware sales of the Amp5 system, distributed exclusively through channel partners — electrical contractors (Granitor Electro, Assemblin), fuel retailers (OKQ8), specialized EV operators (ChargeNode, LaddaTillsammans, Enermont, Fyrstads El), and distributors (EFUEL) — across Sweden, Denmark, and Germany. The company serves property owners, housing cooperatives (BRF), commercial real estate firms, hotels, and workplaces, with notable deployments including 550 charge points at Brf Masthugget, an expansion from 100 to 300+ points at Stena Fastigheter Malmö, and installations at Wihlborgs, ESS Group, and Santa Maria/Paulig. The company has secured orders for more than 3,000 charge points.

Revenue model

1. Hardware Sales (Amp5 System): AmpSociety generates revenue primarily through the sale of its Amp5 modular charging hardware system — including SmartHub, ChargePod modules, ConnectBar, and accessories. The system is sold as a complete, pre-configured, turnkey package through channel partners. Hardware is designed for long lifespan (20+ years) with 5-year product warranty, supporting recurring revenue through service contracts and replacement modules.
2. Software / OCPP Services: OCPP-native system enables integration with multiple charge point operators (CPOs) and eMSPs. Revenue derived from software-enabled features including dynamic load management, remote diagnostics, FOTA updates, and cloud connectivity services bundled with hardware or sold as managed services through partners.

Product overview

AmpSociety's product portfolio centers on Amp5, a modular fifth-generation EV charging system comprising three key sub-products: the SmartHub (central controller), ChargePod (charging module with display), and ConnectBar (interconnect unit). The system is complemented by AmpStudio, a 3D planning tool built on Unreal Engine that enables visualization and procurement of complete installations, and AmpPortal, a web-based management platform for operators and end users. Amp5 communicates via native OCPP (1.6J and 2.0.1) without proxy, supports dynamic load balancing, and is hardware-ready for V2G and Plug & Charge (ISO 15118-2 and ISO 15118-20).
