JUWI plans to start the construction of three major private solar PV projects in 2025, totalling 340 MW.The projects will serve key players in the mining, data centre and energy sectors.

  • a 120 MW solar PV facility for global chemicals and energy company Sasol and French multinational Air Liquide, in partnership with independent power producers TotalEnergies, Mulilo and Reatile Group; and
  • a 100 MW solar PV facility for diversified natural resource company Glencore, providing clean energy for its ferrochrome smelters in partnership with Pele Green Energy.

Potential Job Creation
The projects are expected to create more than 2 000 jobs during the construction phase.
