Gautam Solar is set to expand its footprint in South India by launching TOPCon solar modules from its newly established warehouses in Karnataka and Kerala. These advanced facilities are designed to ensure efficient distribution and easy accessibility of high-quality solar panels across key locations in Kerala, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, and Andhra Pradesh.
The initiative targets project developers, EPC companies, and system integrators in the region. These locally produced solar panels, manufactured to international standards, underscore India’s growing expertise in renewable energy technology. Gautam Solar is enhancing its warehouse capacity and inventory management solutions to meet the increasing demand and ensure prompt product availability.
With these developments, Gautam Solar aims to double its reach in South India by the end of the current financial year. The new warehouse facilities will enable swift access to solar solutions in these states and neighbouring regions like Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh.
