LAPP India, a 100% subsidiary of LAPP and a global leader in cable and connection technology, has partnered with CAHORS, a French multinational company specialised in energy distribution, to offer a comprehensive range of photovoltaic (PV) solutions in India. With this strategic alliance, LAPP India will complement its ÖLFLEX Solar range of cables with an exhaustive product range from CAHORS that includes plug-in connectors, branch connectors, panel connectors, module junction boxes, enclosures, combiner boxes, and crimping/cutting tools.

The country is witnessing an ever-increasing thrust on the adoption and propagation of renewable energy with 450 GW being targeted by 2030. With over 60% of this coming from solar PV and aided by the numerous PLI (Production Linked Incentive) schemes being announced by the government, India will witness a steady demand for PV solutions.

The comprehensive range of products will be available pan India due to LAPP’s well established network of channel partners and will prove to be a cost efficient and time saving option for customers.
