Driving performance with freedom and independence.
Soudal Quick-Step is proud to announce an innovative partnership with Kasanaki, the Official Energy Partner for Technical Applications. This collaboration marks a significant step forward in combining sports performance with sustainable, renewable energy solutions.
The partnership sees Kasanaki equip the team with advanced renewable energy solutions that increase efficiency and reduce dependence on traditional power sources. The new setup not only supports operational excellence but also aligns with Soudal Quick-Step’s commitment to sustainability.
Kasanaki will supply the team with their innovative K2, K3, K5 and K5R power stations, which have a capacity 2000, 3000 and 5000 wh respectively, and can give between 12 and 15 hours of continuous use, which is even more impressive when you consider that this can be extended even further by using the extra battery packs that the team have also been supplied with.
The power stations have integrated solar panels, giving the capability for our team to work while totally off the grid, removing the need to use expensive power sources and the environmental impact of using a diesel generator. Kasanaki have also supplied the team with their KTL3, KTL4, KTL5 and KLRW10 lights, meaning that we can work to support our riders with freedom and independence, whatever the location and conditions.
Speaking of the deal, Jimmy Van Der Jeught, founder of Kasanaki, said: “We are incredibly proud to join forces with Soudal Quick-Step and to demonstrate how renewable energy solutions can make a real difference. It’s not just about technology, but about creating the feeling of freedom and independence – always and everywhere.”
This was echoed by Soudal Quick-Step mechanic Kurt Roose, who said: “Quite often we work in changeable conditions and it can go dark while we are preparing the bikes, so to be able to bring our own lighting, that has a simple and quick setup process, is ideal for us. Kasanaki’s batteries and power stations also mean that we don’t have to stress about finding an electric supply and the renewable system they use is also in line with the team’s environmental philosophy.”
