GE’s Power Conversion business has just completed domestic content compliance for its wind inverter, the DTA CFI lines, following the rules set out by Brazil's state-owned development bank, BNDES, regarding how much of the equipment is manufactured in Brazil.
This means Brazilian clients can get BNDES credit at more attractive interest rates. Following the GE Store concept—offering a complete solution for clients through different businesses owned by the company—compliance with BNDES requirements by wind frequency inverters, which are installed inside wind turbines, met a specific demand from GE's wind division, which took an active part in the entire process.
