The close happened for 6 projects under South Africa's Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (REIPPPP). Globeleq, the Africa-focused independent power producer (IPP)-- is majority partner in the Ikamva Consortium, that was awarded preferred bidder by the DMRE.

The high action indicates exactly how the tide has actually turned in favour of renewables in South Africa, otherwise a slow-moving transform to sustainable. Issues with its distribution companies has been condemned for much of the hold-ups in embracing renewable energy by South Africa.

South Africa's latest renewables procurement window for 2.6 GW of capability has actually gotten bids from 102 possible project programmers, consisting of 63 solar projects, according to the nation's Department of Mineral Resources as well as Energy (DMRE).

The South African Department of Mineral Resources and Energy (DMRE) is asking for propositions for the Risk Mitigation Independent Power Producers Procurement Programme (RMIPPPP). The tender is intended to obtain 2 GW of ability in feedback to the chronic short-term power supply void that is affecting the country as well as its mining industry. Renewables are also entitled to compete.

A decision by South Africa's Department of Mineral Resources and Energy (DMRE) to allocate 6GW of new large-scale solar over the next decade has been welcomed by the South African Photovoltaic Industry Association (SAPVIA) for giving a “moderate level of certainty” to the industry.
