Locquet partners with Waterland to drive sustainable growth and international expansion in Mobile Power Solutions
Kruishoutem, 18 March 2025 – Locquet Power & Light, a leading Belgian family-owned company specializing in mobile power solutions, is further shaping its ambitious growth plans. Under the leadership of fifth-generation Vincent Locquet, the company aims to strengthen its position by focusing on sustainable energy solutions and international expansion. Locquet is receiving support in this endeavor from investment company Waterland.
Based in Kruishoutem with 35 employees, Locquet specializes in the rental of mobile power solutions, including generators, batteries, lighting systems, and charging stations for both electric vehicles and heavier e-machines. The company serves clients who require high levels of service, such as utility companies, event organizers, and infrastructure contractors. Locquet strives to provide comprehensive support for its clients with services such as installation, transportation, consumption and CO2 emission monitoring & reporting, and a 24/7 emergency response service.
Sustainability and Innovation as Driving Forces
The mobile energy supply market is currently undergoing significant changes. Technological innovations, such as the emergence of economically viable battery systems as an alternative or supplement to traditional diesel generators, are driving a shift in the sector. Additionally, stricter environmental regulations on local emissions and noise pollution are pushing companies to seek alternatives to traditional mobile power units.
International Expansion and Strategic Investments
Locquet, a frontrunner in green mobile power solutions in Belgium, aims to expand its activities further into neighboring countries. There are significant growth opportunities in these markets, as some regions are less developed in terms of service levels and product offerings. The company is actively seeking acquisition opportunities to strengthen its (inter)national presence and expand its customer base.
To support this growth, Locquet plans substantial investments in expanding its sustainable and innovative fleet. This includes larger battery systems, mobile solar panels, Stage V generators, hydrogen generators, flywheels, and mobile EV chargers. The organization will also be further developed to maintain its high service standards as demand continues to grow.
Vincent Locquet, CEO of Locquet, on the Future:
“The energy market is evolving rapidly, and we want to take a leading role in the sustainable transformation of mobile power solutions. For instance, we offer our clients (hybrid) power units that reduce CO2 emissions on construction sites by 90% without increasing total costs for the customer. With the support of Waterland, we aim to accelerate our growth by continuing to invest in our fleet and expanding our organization. Our ambition is to strengthen our position as a leader in sustainable mobile power in Belgium and expand into neighboring countries through targeted acquisitions.”
With this strategic direction, Locquet continues to position itself as a pioneer in sustainable mobile energy solutions, emphasizing its commitment to innovation and customer service.
