Panasonic India solar ops stay strong despite US exit

09 May 2025 CW Team

Panasonic Life Solutions India (PLSIND) has reaffirmed its continued commitment to India’s solar energy market, following Panasonic North America’s decision to exit its solar and battery storage business. The company clarified that this restructuring move will not impact operations in India.

Through its division Panasonic Electric Works India (PEWIN), the firm plans to scale up its solar portfolio and distribution network in India. It aims to cater to both residential and commercial demand while collaborating with developers, installers, and government agencies to support India’s clean energy goals.

Panasonic will continue offering high-efficiency solar panels and has assured customers of uninterrupted service, product warranties, and after-sales support.

“India remains a strategic market for Panasonic’s solar business, and we are fully aligned with the country's renewable energy ambitions,” said Sanjay KVS, Business Unit Head, PEWIN. He added that Panasonic would continue investing in innovation and partnerships to strengthen its presence in the Indian solar sector.
