Leading global builder and operator of renewable-energy projects JUWI Renewable Energies has announced that it is building three utility scale solar PV projects in South Africa with a combined capacity of 340 MW and an investment value of R6-billion.

Once in operation the independent power producer (IPP) projects will produce more than a million megawatt-hours yearly and supply green electricity to companies in the mining, data centre, and energy sectors, including Glencore, Teraco, Sasol, and Air Liquide.

The projects include a 120 MW solar PV facility in the Free State, which will produce electricity for wheeling to multiple data centres owned by Teraco Data Centres; a 120 MW solar PV facility for Sasol and Air Liquide, in partnership with TotalEnergies, Mulilo and Reatile Group; and a 100 MW solar PV facility to provide clean energy for Glencore’s ferrochrome smelters in partnership with Pele Green Energy.

“These projects underscore the critical role of private sector leadership in driving South Africa’s energy transition,” JUWI Renewable Energies MD Richard Doyle said in a statement.

“As one of the pioneers of the country’s renewable energy sector, JUWI is proud to partner with energy-intensive industries and IPPs to deliver innovative projects that enhance energy resilience, reduce emissions, and accelerate progress toward net zero.”

In addition to these projects, JUWI also currently operates and maintains nine large renewable-energy projects in Africa with a combined capacity of 574 MW, and which generate nearly a million megawatt-hours yearly.
