Exosun added that it had developed partnerships with Brazilian manufacturers to ensure local production of at least 80% of its tracker value. 

Frédéric Conchy, Exosun’s president said, “In this country [Brazil] with high solar irradiation levels, combined with a strong governmental will to develop renewable energy sources, there is a significant market for solar trackers. It was therefore essential for us to establish a subsidiary in Brazil.”
