Menlo Electric, the fastest-growing solar component distributor in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, has signed a strategic business cooperation agreement with Deye, a leading manufacturer of residential and C&I energy storage solutions. This collaboration represents a major milestone in Deye’s expansion, as it gains access to Menlo Electric’s extensive distribution channels. Deye is firmly committed to addressing the energy shortage demand in the Middle East and African markets by delivering its solar photovoltaic solutions. Demonstrating their dedication, the two companies have pledged a volume of 100+MW specifically aimed at expanding their presence in the region by the end of 2023.

Menlo Electric has solidified its position as the premier distributor of solar components. In 2022 alone, the company delivered over 600 MW of renewable energy solutions to more than 30 countries, operating from ten strategically located logistics hubs spread throughout Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

“Menlo Electric is a valued distributor for Deye, and we have full confidence that this new commitment will greatly enhance the visibility and recognition of Deye’s brand in the MENA market.
