Tailored end-to-end solar logistics solutions designed to meet the unique demands of the solar energy industry.
Whether supporting utility-scale installations such as solar farms, serving commercial and residential markets, or enabling decentralised energy solutions, your logistics strategy is more than a support function—it’s a critical driver of success.
Operating in this fast-evolving sector means grappling with global supply chain volatility, diverse regulatory environments, and varying levels of infrastructure maturity.
Add to that the growing emphasis on sustainability and circularity in logistics, and it becomes clear that delivering solar solutions isn’t just about moving components from point A to B—it’s about navigating uncertainty, optimising performance, and staying ahead of disruption.

Solar solutions built to your needs
Proactive planning secures freight capacity, even during peak seasons. With optimised routing from the origin, we ensure high-volume shipments arrive on time, minimising delays and disruptions.
International solar shipments face delays, unplanned costs, and complex customs rules. We ensure compliance, mitigate unnecessary fees, and reduce risks—all backed with our expert regional knowledge. Through bonded warehouses and Free Trade Zones (FTZs), you can defer duties and boost cash flow. Our flexible logistics keep goods moving, maximising efficiency and profitability.
Strategically located and scalable warehousing options provide secure storage near key markets, allowing you to adapt to fluctuating demand while reducing transit times to project or retail locations. With flexible transport and storage capacities we help manage seasonality and minimise disruption.
Tailored delivery options backed with real-time visibility ensure components reach residential, commercial, or project sites intact and on time. Sequenced deliveries and planning keep projects to schedule and budget. This helps you meet tight deadlines and ensures smooth project execution.
Real-time tracking and data-driven insights provide full transparency across shipments, enabling you to make informed decisions and maintain control over your supply chain at every stage.
As part of our tailorable solar supply chain solutions we offer you a range of component-specific services—feel secure in the knowledge that your goods are in trusted and experienced hands.
Expert customs clearance
Managing a global solar supply chain requires navigating increasingly complex customs procedures, driven by frequent regulatory changes and rising compliance requirements. Non-compliance can lead to severe penalties, including higher costs, shipment delays, fines, and project setbacks, ultimately impacting end-customer satisfaction.
With a global network of over 1,300 offices, our local experts guide you through international trade complexities and unlock savings through smart customs optimisation. This includes leveraging tax and duty deferral programmes, FTZs, bonded warehouses, and more. We also keep you on the pulse, providing relevant updates to legislation and the ever-changing customs and global trade landscape.

Total visibility
Having all eyes on your shipments is essential to running solar supply chains smoothly and efficiently. By knowing the whereabouts of your goods, you can minimise any unwanted surprises and provide your clients with accurate updates.
Our digital platform, myKN, consolidates all your shipment data in one place and provides milestone-based updates, giving you visibility across all modes of transport.
For your road shipments, our Road Customer Visibility solution lets you track shipments in real-time with granular data and actionable insights, all ensuring maximum efficiency and customer satisfaction.
Built for sustainability
The solar industry is clearly at the heart of global efforts to safeguard the world’s environment and help nations meet their sustainability targets. That, in turn, means it’s vital that the logistics practices supporting the sector also adhere to the same objectives.
We position sustainability at the heart of our strategy, making Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) principles a core part of our logistics approach. Furthermore, we are committed to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and aligned with UN sustainability goals.
We work closely with partners and customers to offer low‑emission logistics solutions. For example, our Book and Claim system allows clients to offset emissions through certified use of technologies like sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and electric trucks. In short, we take your sustainability efforts as seriously as we take our own.
