Chinese solar photovoltaic (PV) manufacturer JA Solar has entered into a distribution partnership with India’s PV products distributor Redington.
As per the terms of the agreement, the two companies intend to further strengthen their cooperation to promote the development of rooftop PV projects in India.
Considered as one of the largest PV markets in the world, the country’s rooftop PV market is said to be experiencing a swift upward trend.
The company said that small and medium-sized rooftop projects usually have short construction periods and, therefore, expect a timely supply of solar PV modules.
Under the agreement, JA Solar will be leveraging Redington’s far-reaching distribution channels to supply its solar modules in time to project sites.
Controlling over 90 warehouses across India, Redington has the ability to quickly deliver products and services to local customers.
