What They Do
SYNAPSUN is a French B2B solar-energy company specializing in photovoltaic supply-chain services and distribution tailored for professional customers (source: synapsun.com). Their core business focuses on supplying PV modules, inverters, and batteries, leveraging global sourcing and supply-chain expertise to serve energy professionals across France and Europe (source: euro-energie.com). SYNAPSUN supports clients throughout the entire project lifecycle, from technical selection and contractualization to factory follow-up, quality control, logistics, storage, and project monitoring via their proprietary Synapsun.com portal (source: fr.goodwe.com). Their offerings cover a wide range of solar segments including commercial and industrial installations, ground-mounted utility-scale plants, agrivoltaics, floating solar, and shade structures (source: euro-energie.com).

Projects & Track Record
SYNAPSUN’s track record is primarily commercial and supply-chain oriented, with a focus on serving professional B2B clients in the solar sector rather than direct project construction.

The company’s team brings approximately 15 years of combined experience in the photovoltaic sector, reinforcing their deep industry knowledge (source: prospeo.io). Recently, SYNAPSUN expanded its product portfolio by partnering with GoodWe to include inverters and batteries, enhancing their ability to manage complete solar equipment lots from technical selection to site delivery (source: fr.goodwe.com).

The company actively publishes technical content aimed at educating solar professionals, such as a detailed comparative analysis of glass-backsheet versus dual-glass TOPCon module architectures, covering aspects like durability, moisture resistance, degradation, and maintenance (source: synapsun.com). SYNAPSUN also maintains an active presence on LinkedIn for updates and communications, reinforcing its engagement with the professional solar community (source: fr.goodwe.com).
Working There
SYNAPSUN employs approximately 30 people across six departments, with roles spanning product management, technical leadership, sales, engineering, logistics, quality control, and marketing (source: prospeo.io). The company’s headquarters in Sainte-Foy-lès-Lyon serves as the central hub for its commercial solar distribution operations (source: euro-energie.com). Publicly named roles include Product Owner and Technical Director & Co-Founder, indicating a structured leadership and product development environment (source: prospeo.io).
