The company is also expecting to receive Finame approval from the Brazilian development bank, BNDES, meaning that at least 60% of the components will be locally made. That will allow wind developers using its turbine towers access to BNDES financing.

Inneo Torres expects local component content to represent more than 80% of its towers’ total, says corporate director Oscar Aira Zunzunegui.

The company already has deals to supply nearly 280 towers in Brazil, and it is banking on selling about 400 more units in the second half of 2012.
