AESOLAR Extends Its Impact in Bangkok Community: Supporting Thailand’s Center of Dreams Shelter with Solar Power

Following our meaningful involvement in the initiative, AESOLAR returned to Bangkok Community Help Foundation (BCHF) in Khlong Toei, Bangkok in July 2025, continuing our commitment to sustainable development and social upliftment through clean energy. This year, we supported the BCHF with 28 units of high-performance, which expected to generate approximately 25MWh of clean electricity per year, helping to energize their latest project — the Home Shelter “Center of Dreams”.

This collaboration was made possible through the joint effort of AESOLAR and our local distributor, who provided the solar modules, our partner AERO Solar and Automation, who handled the installation, and Hoymiles, who supplied the inverters. Together, we brought a practical and sustainable solution to a facility that’s working tirelessly to change lives.

A Home That Heals and Empowers

The Center of Dreams is more than just a shelter — it is a space for renewal, training, and reintegration. Nestled in a striking blue three-story building, the center’s rooftop terrace flourishes with hydroponic and soil-grown vegetables, reflecting a sense of growth and resilience that mirrors its mission.

Inside, the third floor is dedicated to emergency housing for homeless individuals, complete with clean restrooms, a small reception area, and sleeping quarters. The second floor includes additional housing space and two large classrooms used for vocational and social skills training. Individuals are welcome to stay for up to 90 days, during which they receive free meals and structured support to reintegrate into society. Opened in February 2025, the center has already supported 21 individuals and aims to help at least 150 people rebuild their lives by the end of 2026.

Solar Energy to Light the Way

Before the solar installation, the Center of Dreams was spending 10,000 THB (approx. 260 EUR) per month on electricity bills — a major cost burden despite the center’s food partially coming from its own rooftop harvest. The AESOLAR system is expected to significantly reduce these costs, freeing up resources to extend the length and quality of support offered to residents.

As Friso Poldervaart and Greg Lange, co-founders of BCHF, remarked: “Every baht saved on electricity goes directly into helping people. The AESOLAR installation not only powers our shelter — it strengthens our mission.” This marks another step in our growing partnership with BCHF. Last year, donated a rooftop solar system to , which now fully offsets its electricity expenses thanks to our solution.

Shared Values, Shared Future

Walking through the center, it’s hard to miss the handwritten quote painted on the wall: “May it serve as a symbol of our shared values, mutual respect, and the strong bond that unites us” In that spirit, AESOLAR is proud to return not only with technology but with hope.

From handmade crafts waiting to be delivered, to AERO engineers carefully mounting solar panels, to the vibrant rooftop garden, every detail of the Center of Dreams tells a story of resilience, kindness, and clean energy working hand-in-hand.

AESOLAR remains dedicated to bringing solar energy where it matters most — empowering communities, enabling sustainability, and lighting the way to a better future.
