ENF Solar Scraper - Companies & PV Datasheets

Disclaimer: Unofficial integration for publicly accessible sources. Trademarks belong to their respective owners. Provided for informational use only; users must comply with applicable platform terms and laws.

Scrape solar PV company directories and product datasheets from the ENF Solar directory into structured JSON. Pull installers and EPC firms by country, panel / inverter / storage manufacturers, sellers and distributors, plus PDF datasheets with warranties, STC electrical data, and bulk pricing when published.

Built for B2B solar lead generation, distributor sourcing, EPC prospecting, competitive product research, and CRM enrichment — fast HTTP extraction with Chrome TLS fingerprinting via curl_cffi (no headless browser).

Use cases

Use case	What you get
Installer / EPC leads	Country directories with phone, website, region, multi-office addresses
Manufacturer research	Panel / component makers, technologies (TOPCon, HJT, bifacial), distributor maps

When to use this Actor

• You need ENF Solar company or product data as structured rows (not screenshots)
• You want country + category filters for installers, sellers, or manufacturers
• You need PDF datasheet links and technical specs for panels, inverters, or storage
• You prefer startUrls for specific profile or datasheet pages

When not to use this Actor

• Non-ENF sources — for live B2B wholesale offers and warehouse prices use SolarTraders Scraper
• Guaranteed emails on every profile — many installer pages publish phone and website only
• Authenticated / member-only ENF fields — public HTML only
• Downloading PDF binaries into storage — outputs the CDN URL; download separately if needed

Key features

• Three modes — companies, products, or startUrls
• Company categories — installer, panel, seller, component, material, software, equipment
• Product categories — panel, inverter, storage-system, mounting-system, cell, materials, installation-accessories
• Detail enrichment — fetchDetails for full profiles / datasheets, or listing-only for speed
• Contact extraction — phone (tel:), website, social links, Cloudflare-protected emails when present
• Multi-office profiles — country, address, phone, email arrays on large manufacturer pages
• Datasheet depth — PDF URL, shared specifications, per-model columns, bulk pricing tables
• Pagination controls — maxPages + maxItems for predictable run cost
• Lightweight & fast — curl_cffi Chrome 120 impersonation, concurrent detail workers

Tips

• For installers and sellers always set country (URL slug, e.g. Germany, Spain).
• Start with maxPages: 1–3 and maxItems: 50 before large crawls.
• Use residential proxy for multi-thousand runs; keep concurrency ≤ 8 if you see 403/429.
• Set fetchDetails: false when you only need names and profile / datasheet URLs.
• Product PDFs stay on the CDN — the Actor stores datasheetPdfUrl, not the file bytes.

FAQ

Does every company include an email?
No. Many installer profiles publish phone and website only. Emails are returned when ENF exposes them (including Cloudflare-protected addresses we can decode).

Can I scrape all countries?
Yes — run one country per input (or pass multiple directory URLs in startUrls). There is no single “all countries” switch.

Panels vs inverters?
Use mode: products and set productCategory to panel, inverter, storage-system, etc.
