"It is a milestone for Brazilian energy, when we talk about renewables. Brazil has a leading role when it comes to renewable energy, but it does not position itself as an equipment manufacturer. So, we are changing this perspective and entering a leading role in manufacturing”, he commented. Thiago Varanda, general director of Livoltek.

Still according to the executive, the factory will initially serve the Brazilian market, with plans to expand to the entire Latin market.
