Ingeteam has supplied 108 solar inverters and 32 substations for two Brazilian solar PV projects from Mercury Renew, a Grupo Comerc Energia company.
The first of the two projects is the Brígida 80 MWp solar plant. The plant began operating in April last year and was inaugurated in July 2021 by the minister of Mines and Energy and the minister of Tourism.
The second plant, the Bon Norme 130 MWp solar plant has been commissioned now. Both plants are part of the same solar complex located in the state of Pernambuco.
