What we are about
What we are about
Every great idea starts somewhere. Ours? A cramped two-room apartment, where our founders turned a bedroom into a production space and convinced companies like Google to order solar-charged AA batteries.
Today, that same spirit has made us Europe’s largest powerbank rental service.
The product has changed, but our mission hasn’t: delivering a sustainable, convenient service that keeps people powered and happy.

Powerbanks for the TikTok Generation: Sustainable or E-Waste?
Jan 6, 2025
Chimpy's green rental batteries are a Zurich success story. We asked the co-founder how sustainable a product can really be when it generates so many emissions.

Circular Economy: Not Everything That Glitters Is Green
Sep 16, 2024
Our consumption harms the environment, so products should be used longer and waste avoided. But even the circular economy has its pitfalls.

The new Chimpy Powerbank is here
Jun 18, 2024
Faster and with even more power! With the new power banks, we’re kicking off the summer in style. Only one question remains: who can last longer, you or your Chimpy?
