PV Wholesale as the Backbone of the Solar Industry
No solar installer can operate economically without reliable sources of supply. The PV wholesale sector in Germany has become highly professionalized in recent years and now offers a wide range of products and services. Installers benefit from comparing options, as differences in product range, delivery times, and conditions are significant.
The Most Important PV Wholesalers in Germany
The German market is dominated by several established distributors:
- BayWa r.e.: One of the largest distributors in Europe with a broad product range
- Krannich Solar: Family-owned company with a strong focus on the German market
- Sonepar / Solarplatz: Electrical wholesaler with a growing PV product range
- IBC Solar: System provider with its own wholesale and planning tools
- Memodo: Online wholesaler with fast shipping and transparent prices
These wholesalers typically cover modules, inverters, storage systems, and mounting systems. However, for accessories like roof penetrations, the offerings are often limited.
The Gap in the Product Range: Specialized Components
Many solar installers report that they need to use multiple suppliers for certain components. Especially for roof penetrations, many companies resort to makeshift solutions from the plumbing sector – simply because the PV wholesaler does not carry specialized products.
This leads to problems:
- Penetrations not optimized for PV cables require more installation time
- MC4 connectors must be disassembled
- Durability is not tailored to the requirements of the solar industry

What Solar Installers Should Look For When Choosing Suppliers
| Criterion | What to look for |
| Delivery time | Availability from stock, not manufactured only upon order |
| Minimum order quantity | Must match project volume |
| Product quality | UV resistance, tested materials |
| Price-performance | Consider total cost including installation time |
| Support | Technical advice in German |
Multiple Sources of Supply Are Normal
No single wholesaler covers all requirements. Professional solar installation companies typically work with two to four suppliers. Wholesalers for core components, and specialists for specialized products like roof penetrations.
