Constant Energy Completes 813.63 kWp Rooftop Solar Installation for Driessen Catering Equipment

Constant Energy proudly announces the successful completion of Phase 2 of the rooftop solar project for Driessen Catering Equipment in Lamphun province, Thailand. This phase adds 813.63 kWp to the initial 1.4 MW from Phase 1, bringing the total capacity to 2.2 MW.

Driessen Catering Equipment, a global leader in catering equipment for aircraft and trains, employs over 1,000 people worldwide. The company is known for providing cutting-edge solutions that meet customer expectations and comply with aviation regulations.

Phase 2 of the project highlights the positive impact of the partnership established in Phase 1 and underscores the effectiveness and necessity of ongoing renewable energy initiatives.

This achievement was made possible through our smooth collaboration with Constant Energy. Solar energy plays a critical role in our sustainability strategy and our commitment to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. We are excited to explore future possibilities for Phase 3. Our goal is to be a leader in sustainable manufacturing and achieve Gold Status with Ecovadis.”

Franck Constant, CEO and Founder of Constant Energy, commended the excellent communication and coordination of the Driessen team: “The success and on-time completion of the project, achieved in just 4 months, can be attributed to the excellent communication and coordination of the team from Driessen. At Constant Energy, health and safety are priorities, and we commend Driessen for upholding these same standards, which contributed to the smooth execution of the project. We look forward to continuing our partnership.”

Following this successful collaboration, Driessen Catering Equipment is now one of the first factories in northern Thailand to implement a large-scale solar energy system. This pioneering achievement significantly reduces carbon emissions in the region, sets a strong example for other businesses, and promotes sustainable practices.
