Daikin completes 1MW solar power plant
1st June 2025
USA: Daikin has completed the installation of a solar power plant of nearly 1MW at its North American headquarters near Waller, Texas.
The installation at the Daikin Texas Technology Park features bifacial solar panels, designed to capture direct and reflected ambient sunlight from both the front and rear sides.
The energy generated will directly power the facility’s central chiller plant, which circulates approximately 125,000 gallons of chilled water annually and 75,000 gallons of hot water in the winter months, serving as a backbone for the facility’s climate control.
The solar panels are expected to eliminate an estimated 845 tonnes of carbon emissions annually.
The solar structure is also designed for grid integration, allowing Daikin to support the wider power grid as needed.
The Texas Technology Park manufactures a full range of ducted residential and light commercial air conditioning products, as well as commercial VRV products.
