- Participation of Solairedirect in the project capital
- Large pool of national and international investors and bankers committed to Solairedirect’s projects
- Creation of long-term financial products (shareholders loan, convertible bonds, mezzanine, etc.) aimed at financing the assets to lower the cost of kWh
