According to Marcio Matos, responsible for Martifer Solar’s Development, “This project demonstrates our ability and willingness to adapt and accept new challenges, as well as to approach new markets. We believe that off-grid markets represent a key opportunity to value renewable energy, not only by being a clean and noiseless way of producing energy but also by reducing energy production costs with the replacement of diesel generators and grid extensions”.

To date, Martifer has participated in the implementation of over 150MW of PV solar energy worldwide.
