Memphis, TN and Dublin, Ireland, September 19, 2023 – CES Power LLC (“CES Power”), a leading global provider of sustainable mobile power generation, distribution, and temperature control solutions for large events, today announced that it has acquired Euro Touring Power (“ETP”), a premier provider of electrical equipment and air conditioning rental for touring productions throughout Europe.

Based in Dublin, ETP supplies transformers, cables, distribution boxes, and stage air conditioning to large shows and events. The company provides the equipment that powers major entertainment, sports, and corporate productions throughout Europe. Managing Director Vincent Campion and the ETP management team will remain with the company.
"Expanding overseas has always been part of our business plan, and we are excited to gain a strong foothold in Europe with the addition of ETP, an experienced partner with a reputation for quality equipment and superior service. We expect to work closely with Vincent and his team to build our customer base and add exciting new products as we grow the CES brand in Europe."
Greg Landa, CEO of CES Power.

"We are excited at the synergy and geographical reach that the CES Power acquisition of Infinite Power will provide our collective companies. Our brands are committed to superior customer service and quality, and we look forward to a mutually beneficial productive relationship."
In conjunction with CES Power's expansion and acquisition of ETP, the company announced the launch of CES Global. This new division serves as an extension of CES Power, designed to focus on delivering the company's signature mobile power generation, distribution, and temperature control solutions globally, starting initially with Europe. CES Global aims to seamlessly integrate with the existing services of CES Power and the newly acquired capabilities of ETP, offering comprehensive, turnkey solutions for events worldwide. This strategic move enables the company to better cater to its clients operating across various international markets, ensuring a consistent level of quality and service, regardless of location.

By integrating our expertise with the capabilities of our new European hub, we're poised to deliver unparalleled service to our customers wherever they are in the world. This is an exciting new chapter for CES Power, and it underlines our dedication to being a global leader in mobile power solutions."
