PowerGo appoints Ivo van Dam as new CEO

The management team has chosen Van Dam to lead the company after his tenure as Chief Technology Officer.

Ivo van Dam has been appointed as the CEO of PowerGo, the charging point operator of PowerField, a Dutch organization specialized in the generation, storage and supply of solar energy.

In 2019, Ivo van Dam joined PowerField in order to develop a broader view on existing and new technologies. As part of this strategy, the subsidiary was founded in 2020, and he has served as Chief Technology Officer for both companies.

“PowerGo has grown from a small team to an organization that has achieved remarkable milestones in a short time. In this new chapter, my focus will be on structuring the company and further accelerating growth to solidify PowerGo’s position in the EV charging industry,” said Van Dam.

Ivo van Dam has over 20 years of experience in the technology sector, with the last 18 years dedicated to the energy transition with projects in solar, EV charging, and energy storage. Before joining the company, he managed the project delivery and engineering unit of Vattenfall.

From 2019, Ivo was CTO at PowerField and PowerGo, and responsible for project delivery, engineering, and new technology development. Currently, the company has rolled out large-scale projects for companies and governments across seven European countries.
