Brazilian industrial-engineering firm WEG Industries has received the first order for its wind turbines from an unnamed developer of a 90-megawatt project slated to be built in northeast Brazil by 2016. WEG, which has a joint venture with Spain's M. Torres Olvega Industrial, will build the nacelles at a factory in the Brazilian state of Catarina. "This first contract shows we have a very competitive offer with good technology, made locally, that we can finance in local currency," says Luis Fernando Oliveira, WEG's investor relations manager.
