The company’s impressive track record includes the successful implementation of 280 Mega Watt peak (MWp) solar projects across the Asia-Pacific.

Over the six years, the company has witnessed remarkable growth and doubling its business operations.

Through collaboration with SUN Energy’s partners, the company believes it can make a significant contribution to addressing the world’s major issue of climate change by providing renewable energy solutions.

Corporate Culture & Company Activities

SUN Energy embarked on its journey with a noble mission, actively participating in corporate CSR initiatives focused on bringing electricity to remote and underserved areas. At that time, solar energy emerged as the most accessible and efficient technology for this purpose. Hence, SUN Energy installed solar systems in over 2,800 rural households, granting people access to lighting, fans, and basic electrical appliances.

This historical experience continues to inspire SUN Energy’s commitment to making positive social impacts while ensuring long-term profitability.
