EAI has an in-depth understanding of the solar PV value chain, and our team has worked on a variety of strategic assignments right from the beginning of the solar power phenomenon in India. We have done assignments from polysilicon until the tail end – off-grid solar products such as solar lanterns and streetlights.
Our assistance helped a multi-billion $ multinational firm decide on their investment strategy in the upstream solar PV manufacturing sector.
At the other end, we also helped a small German developer of solar power plant monitoring system enter the Indian market and win business.
Our team has also worked with large Indian business groups diversifying into different sectors of the solar business.
In solar PV, we have worked with diverse stakeholders – government, small businesses, global leaders, international firms entering India and academia. The following are some of the key areas in solar PV where EAI can provide assistance:
