Overview

The global clean energy transition is one of the defining trade flows of our era. Solar panels, inverters, battery storage systems and electric vehicle parts are moving across borders in extraordinary volumes — and the supply chains behind them are among the most technically demanding in international logistics.

China sits at the centre of this transition. Chinese manufacturers account for the overwhelming majority of global photovoltaic module production, a dominant share of energy storage manufacturing, and a rapidly growing proportion of new energy vehicle exports. Getting these products from factory to installation site, to end consumer, to distributor — reliably, compliantly, and at competitive cost — is the challenge Panex WD International is built to solve.

We have provided logistics and supply chain services to leading clean energy exporters for years, operating across their most complex markets: Europe, North America, Southeast Asia and Latin America. Our clean energy practice is not a generalist freight service applied to solar panels — it is a specialist capability built around the specific regulatory, handling, safety, and commercial requirements of this industry.

Why Clean Energy Logistics Is Uniquely Complex

Clean energy products present a combination of logistical challenges that few providers are equipped to handle in full:

Client Case Studies

The following case studies illustrate how Panex WD International delivers differentiated value to leading clean energy clients operating at scale across complex international markets.

Case Study

BYD

New Energy Vehicles, Southeast Asia

Client

BYD — world’s leading EV manufacturer

Markets

Indonesia (primary); replicating to Thailand, Malaysia, Brazil

Products

Finished passenger EVs; expanding to auto parts

Standing

BYD’s largest logistics partner in-market

BYD’s expansion into Indonesia and other emerging markets exposed critical gaps in its existing logistics setup. Most 3PLs lacked genuine on-the-ground service capabilities — PDI inspection, repair, testing, and coordinated delivery to 4S dealership networks — essential for EV market entry. Prior providers failed on service consistency, particularly during peak seasons, with extended lead times and high landed costs caused by customs clearance friction. Indonesia’s archipelagic geography added further complexity that most providers could not navigate at scale.

Panex WD International deployed an integrated, end-to-end nationwide solution in Indonesia: local-network-empowered value-added services covering customs clearance, pre-delivery inspection, repair and maintenance, and direct delivery to 4S dealerships — backed by peak-season customs capacity assurance built on local know-how and established relationships with Indonesian trade authorities.

The partnership has expanded in three dimensions — vertically (from finished vehicles into auto parts); geographically (replicating the model in Thailand and Malaysia); and commercially (becoming one of BYD’s most valued local partner within just two years of engagement).The practice provides a replicable blueprint for further expansion across Southeast Asia.

Service model

End-to-end integrated: ocean freight, EU warehousing, last-mile delivery

As one of the world’s highest-volume PV module exporters, Jinko Solar required a European logistics partner capable of matching the pace and precision of its supply commitments to installers, utilities, and distributors across seven major EU markets, while maintaining the service consistency that end clients demand. Fragmented logistics across multiple service providers created turnaround inefficiency, compliance risk, and inconsistent fulfilment.

Panex WD International provides Jinko Solar with a fully integrated, end-to-end logistics service across Europe. This encompasses ocean freight to key EU ports (led by our Rotterdam hub), followed by warehousing and distribution across Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal and Poland, with value-added services at each stage. Our single-provider model reduces turnaround time versus coordinating multiple vendors, ensures consistent service delivery to Jinko’s downstream clients, and provides flexible warehousing capacity that scales with Jinko’s rapid market expansion. Competitive pricing backed by operational expertise addresses the true logistics bottlenecks — customs efficiency, warehousing utilisation, and last-mile reliability — not just transit time.

The partnership is evolving toward deeper collaboration — including supplementary distribution services for channel penetration in lower-tier European markets, installation and inspection services, and exploration of project logistics.
