SUNGROW, the global leader in solar inverters and energy storage systems, commemorated the Sri Lankan market launch of SUNGROW Energy Storage Systems with their main channel distribution partner, PANASIAN POWER PLC. This historic event unfolded on the 28th of May, at Cinnamon Life - City of Dreams, in front of all the major stakeholders and companies in the energy field in Sri Lanka.

Speaking to the media after the event, the CEO of Panasian Power PLC, Mr. Pathmanatha Poddiwala highlighted the following: “We are proud to launch Sungrow Energy Storage Systems and Hybrid inverters into the Sri Lankan market.

The new Energy Storage Solutions launched by Sungrow will be key in carrying Sri Lanka towards their next big step in the green revolution”.

This resourceful business relationship between SUNGROW and PANASIAN POWER PLC first started back in 2018 and has grown from strength to strength. Having installed Sungrow inverters in their own ground mounted projects, Panasian Power swiftly recognized the high quality and performance of Sungrow inverters. Sungrow at that time was also looking at a suitable reputed renewable energy company in Sri Lanka to become their main channel partner, and they too realised the capacity and professionalism of Panasian Power. This mutual respect and understanding soon led to the initiation of Panasian Power PLC becoming Sungrow’s first and exclusive channel distribution partner in Sri Lanka.
