Mitsui has become a minority shareholder in Órigo, a Brazilian company focused on photovoltaic energy and with several projects throughout the country. “We believe that the distributed solar generation market in Brazil could be the largest in the world,” says Noriaki Watanabe, director of the company’s infrastructure segment in South America, in an interview with Valor.
“We have an investment of US$1.4 billion in Brazil, which is a lot for our size. It means we are committed to the country in the long term and prepared, despite occasional political and economic turbulence,” said Maasaki Hamamoto, head of Mitsui’s infrastructure segment in Brazil.
