DNV KEMA to Develop Advanced Power-Testing Laboratories in Brazil
(firmenpresse) - RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL and ARNHEM, THE NETHERLANDS -- (Marketwire) -- 08/14/12 --
The escalating demand for electricity to serve the country's rapid economic growth necessitates modern facilities that can test and certify electrical apparatus destined for regional power grids. DNV KEMA has been selected as an advisor, because of its 75 years of experience in testing power equipment and designing high-power and high-voltage laboratories.
DNV KEMA's work will include design, construction oversight, tendering assistance, and final review and calibration of the high-voltage and high-power laboratories. The new laboratories are expected to have a significant role in furthering Brazil's power industry to serve as a catalyst for growth in domestic power equipment manufacturing.
"With the creation of the laboratory, we expect to provide better services for the electric industry, contributing to its empowerment and also to the sustainable development of the country," Lúcio Sampaio, director of SENAI said.
"We are very pleased to support SINAEES/SENAI with the development of these laboratories in one of the world's most dynamic markets," said Paul Leufkens, general manager of KEMA-Powertest, LLC in the United States.
