Description (French)
Projet du Programme d'action international de co-innovation (PAIC) : Nous nous dirigeons vers les marchés internationaux pour atteindre les régions qui ont besoin de solutions énergétiques durables avec des niveaux similaires de pauvreté énergétique, afin de capitaliser sur la demande croissante de solutions de stockage de l'énergie dans le monde. Nous utilisons la co-innovation comme mécanisme pour adapter notre solution aux exigences locales en utilisant le savoir-faire et l'expertise locaux pour développer un réseau efficace de service et de soutien après-vente. Au Brésil, nous nous concentrerons d'abord sur notre Smart Switch, une solution de stockage d'énergie commerciale et résidentielle parce qu'elle présente le plus grand intérêt et le plus grand potentiel de revenus par rapport au commerce de détail. Nous avons déjà entamé des discussions avec des utilisateurs finaux et des représentants locaux au Brésil, et nous avons particulièrement reçu un intérêt marqué de la part de la troisième plus grande société privée de services publics au Brésil.
