Q1. At REI Expo, what new innovations in your string inverter or smart PV solutions will WattPower highlight, especially in terms of safety features and grid compatibility?
WattPower is focusing on emerging technologies, including Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) and advanced grid-forming inverter solutions. Alongside these, the company will showcase enhanced safety features designed to support India’s renewable energy goal for 2030.
Q2. With WattPower reporting 100% year-on-year revenue growth and expanding its service team, how is the company scaling its operations to ensure after-sales support and reliability across India?
The expansion is aimed at significantly enhancing customer satisfaction by ensuring timely service delivery, efficient replacements, and strong technical support across all regions. A knowledgeable and skilled service team plays a crucial role in this approach, enabling accurate fault analysis, quick identification of issues, and effective problem resolution, all of which are essential for maintaining reliability and long-term customer trust.
Q3. What partnerships and collaborations is WattPower planning to pursue at REI, and what scale of opportunities do you anticipate from these engagements?
REI serves as a platform to strengthen ongoing relationships while exploring new opportunities. Beyond engaging with known developers in the market, WattPower sees significant potential in state-level schemes such as KUSUM, MSKY, and Open Access. The company aims to showcase its products and share technical expertise with new developers and EPC companies. A key focus will also be on knowledge-sharing around grid-forming inverters, with the goal of onboarding larger developers and expanding collaborations.
Q4. Given your high-efficiency inverter range and hybrid energy systems, what are WattPower’s strategies at REI to address the growing demand from utility-scale and industrial solar projects for durability, minimal downtime, and high performance?
WattPower’s strategies are centred on incorporating advancements in reliability, often leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies for remote monitoring. The company is focused on offering longer warranties, enabling predictive maintenance, and driving industry collaboration with key stakeholders. In addition, data-driven design optimization and advanced component engineering are being applied to deliver robust products that ensure durability, minimal downtime, and consistently high performance.
Q5. As you prepare for REI, how is WattPower using its manufacturing capacity in Chennai (nearly 9.9 GW facility) to meet both domestic demand and export potential, and what challenges remain?
WattPower is driving India’s clean energy revolution through its cutting-edge string inverters manufactured at its 9.9 GW facility in Tamil Nadu. The company’s efficient and reliable technology converts sunlight into grid-ready power, supporting businesses and communities in building a sustainable future.
Domestic demand for string inverters is growing, as more developers recognize the long-term advantages of string inverters over central inverters in terms of generation efficiency, serviceability, and grid adaptability. WattPower plans to further enhance its manufacturing capacity in the coming financial year to meet this rising demand and explore export potential.
The primary challenge in the Indian market remains the project cycle and timelines, which are highly sensitive to policy changes and seasonal variations.
Q6. REI Expo often features discussions around solar + storage and round-the-clock renewable solutions. Does WattPower have plans to expand its hybrid and energy storage offerings, and will you be showcasing them at the expo?”
WattPower is focusing on upcoming technologies such as Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) and advanced grid-forming inverter solutions, along with enhanced safety features to support the country’s renewable energy goal for 2030. The company will be showcasing its solutions around these two key innovations at the expo.
Q7. Considering India’s push for decentralised solar under schemes like KUSUM and rural electrification, how does WattPower see its role in supporting off-grid or remote solar deployment, and what did you learn from your work in Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra that you’ll bring to REI?”
Decentralized schemes contribute to nearly 20% of the annual on-grid solar market. Under KUSUM, the market for on-grid inverters is particularly significant, and WattPower currently holds more than 60% market share for KUSUM projects.
Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Karnataka have been major contributors to the KUSUM scheme so far, while recent allocations in Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh, and Telangana represent the next booming markets.
WattPower has gained a deep understanding of the technical parameters behind these schemes—including design requirements, reactive power management, and grid compliance—through direct engagement with customers and field experience. The company plans to share this knowledge and provide its most suitable solutions to new developers working under these schemes.
