India-based PV module manufacturer and project developer, Moser Baer
Solar, has said shipments and sales to Japan have reached a new record
in 2013.
The company claimed to have become the first Indian supplier to reach
sales of Rs 100 crore (US$16.2 million) in the Japanese market for the
first nine months of the Japanese financial year that runs from April to
April. Part of the success the company touted was due to obtaining JET (JIS
Q8901) and JET PVm certification that has meant its ‘Elite’ PV Modules
have become popular with some of Japan’s largest EPC and PV project
developers.
Vivek Chaturvedi, chief marketing officer of Moser Baer Solar, said:
“Japan traditionally is amongst the world’s most quality conscious
markets and we are proud to have established an Indian brand in high
technology space here. This reiterates India’s capability to develop,
manufacture and deliver world class products across categories globally.
The opportunity is big and we look forward to further our commitments
in Japan’s journey towards promoting clean energy. A strong quality
focus, and our understanding of Japan market sensitivities in general
and Japan solar PV business in specific has resulted in this significant
growth in shipments.”
The company said that it had initially started marketing its modules in Japan three years ago.
