1. Market Research & Business Plan:
Research the market: Understand the demand for solar panels in Malaysia. Consider factors like government incentives, competition, and target customer segments (residential, commercial, industrial).

Manufacturing Facility: Decide whether to lease, buy, or build a manufacturing facility. The size will depend on your production capacity.
4. Equipment & Technology:
Essential Equipment: You'll need machinery for solar cell production, panel assembly, and testing. This includes solar stringer machines, laminators, and electroluminescence testers.
Technology Choice: Research different solar panel technologies (e.g., monocrystalline, polycrystalline) to determine the best fit for your target market and budget.
5. Funding & Resources:
Secure Funding: This could involve personal investment, bank loans, or attracting venture capitalists interested in renewable energy.
Recruiting Talent: Hire qualified engineers, technicians, and production personnel to manage the manufacturing process.
Additional Tips:
