Solar energy equipment supplier juwi Renewable Energies has concluded three engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) and operation and maintenance (O&M) contracts, with a combined value of R3-billion, with African Infrastructure Investment Managers (AIIM), which will deliver 250 MW of additional solar photovoltaic (PV) electricity to South Africa’s power grid over the coming few years.
The agreements follow in the wake of Energy Minister Jeff Radebe’s announcement in April of the signing of power purchase agreements with the 27 independent power producer projects contracted under Round 4 of the Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (REIPPPP). The R56-billion worth of projects will add 2 300 MW of renewable energy capacity to the national grid over the next five years.
Juwi has been contracted to build the 86 MW Waterloo Solar Park, situated near Vryburg, in the North West; the 78 MW Bokamoso Solar Park, situated near Leeudoringstad, in the North West; and the 86 MW Droogfontein 2 Solar Park, situated near Kimberley, in the Northern Cape.
