SolarEnergy&Storage

Tier-1 Solar Panels & Batteries.

The brief

Clean energy projects depend on dependable procurement. It is not enough to find products — buyers need the right products, from the right manufacturers, at the right commercial terms.

The Process

From project specification to factory-gate — precision procurement for solar and storage projects.

  1. Starting Point

    Project Specification & Technical Brief

    Define your technical requirements — panel wattage, cell technology (mono PERC, TOPCon, bifacial), battery chemistry (LFP or NMC), inverter type, project scale, and required certifications. Share your installation location, grid connection type, and project timeline.

  2. 1–2 Weeks

    Manufacturer Identification & Tier Verification

    We identify suitable Tier-1 or qualified manufacturers, verifying Bloomberg NEF ratings, certification status, production capacity, and financial standing. For emerging market projects, we also assess export experience and documentation capability.

  3. 1–2 Weeks

    Technical Compliance Review

    We review manufacturer datasheets, IEC test reports, and warranty terms against project specifications before any commercial commitment is made.

  4. 1–2 Weeks

    Price Negotiation & Commercial Quotation

    We negotiate directly with manufacturers using consolidated project volumes. Quotations are presented with full transparency — unit pricing, freight, warranty terms, lead times, and payment structure.

  5. 1 Week

    Order Confirmation & Production Scheduling

    Production scheduling is confirmed with the factory, aligning manufacturing capacity with project delivery requirements. For phased projects, production is coordinated across multiple delivery windows.

  6. Prior to Production

    Factory Inspection & Pre-Production Audit

    For significant orders, a pre-production factory inspection verifies manufacturing readiness, materials availability, and quality management systems — protecting project timelines before production begins.

  7. During Production

    Production Monitoring & Quality Checks

    Our team monitors production progress and conducts in-process inspections — checking cell efficiency, module construction, and electroluminescence (EL) imaging where required.

  8. 1–2 Weeks Before Shipment

    Pre-Shipment Inspection & Certification Verification

    Final pre-shipment inspection covers product sampling, carton integrity, serial number recording, and documentation review. All IEC, CE, and TÜV certifications are re-confirmed as valid before release.

  9. Ocean: 2–6 Weeks Depending on Destination

    Export, Freight & Project Logistics

    Full export documentation is prepared. For large shipments, we coordinate FCL container bookings, cargo insurance, and phased delivery scheduling aligned with the installation programme.

  10. Ongoing

    Delivery Support & Warranty Management

    Post-delivery, we support site teams with documentation and warranty registration. Manufacturing defects or shipping damage claims are managed directly with the factory on your behalf.
