Nexans Solar Technologies is an internal branch of Nexans, created in 2018 as part of the transition plan towards renewable energies, which aims at providing solutions, products, and services to energy producers and investors.
The solar tracker from KEYLIOS® is the first solution entirely conducted by Nexans Solar Technologies, from design to manufacturing. A major contract had already been signed with a prominent developer of photovoltaic projects and an energy supplier providing more than 800 of these solar trackers to be established on four solar facilities located in the southwest of France.
This project represents a major technical challenge for the company Le Bras Frères, of which the new team embodies an internal generational shift highlighted by a significant desire to increase skills and productivity through new investments (acquisition of a size K2i machine, extension of production facilities, and so on).
A new multi‑purpose hall in the historic city center of Calais, France was inaugurated in mid-June 2015.
The hall, made of steel, timber, and aluminum, has a modular structure. Therefore, it can be used for many occasions (weekly markets, fairs, concerts, spectacles, and much more).
The clear style and the windows on the north and south sides allow a great deal of daylight, which is reflected by the internal wood cladding. On the west side, a folding door can be opened. It can then be used as a 69-foot-wide outdoor stage.
