Adani Solar Strengthens Retail Footprint In Maharashtra

Adani Group’s solar PV manufacturing and EPC arm, Adani Solar, has announced the expansion of its retail distribution business for Maharashtra with Roofsol Energy Pvt. Ltd. According to Adani Solar, Roofsol Energy will be the official channel partner for the Maharashtra region. Additionally, Adani Solar shared that it has now extended its reach to more than 2,500 towns for the distribution of solar panels in India.

The two companies are committed to rapidly penetrating and capitalising on Maharashtra’s renewable energy market with the partnership. This will  catalyze the switch to sustainable solar power solutions economically. Residential consumers and commercial establishments in the region stand to gain greatly from this initiative.

It may be noted that the Maharashtra government is promoting solar power installations across the state through rooftop solar, C&I as well as the KUSUM segments.

We look forward to achieving higher reach and visibility for our product nationally by increasing power consumption through alternative forms of energy like solar energy.

Additionally, this region has enormous investment opportunities in renewable energy. Roofsol Energy Pvt. Ltd., as the authorized channel partner of Adani Solar, will be responsible for all the solar retail requirements in the region.”
