The
bank
has
removed
Vestas
and
several
other
equipment
makers
from
its
authorised
suppliers
list,
as
it
completes
an
audit
of
all
manufacturers.
The
companies
were
found
to
be
not
complying
with
rules
stipulating
that
at
least
60%
of
equipment
content
be
locally
sourced
and
that
manufacturers
operate
a
factory
or
assembly
plant
in
Brazil.

Latin

analyst
at
MAKE
Consulting,
says:
“The
major

is

The
other
equipment
manufacturers
are
not
nearly
as
critical
to
the
health
of
the
Brazilian
wind
market.”
