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.
