- One of the first large-scale private procurement process in South Africa
- Strong offtake partners, Sasol and Air Liquide
Significant and attractive pipeline
- Current development pipeline of over 10 GW solar and onshore wind, land secured to fully permitted

| Capacity | 97.5 MW |
|---|---|
| PPA | 20 years |
| Financial Close | Nov 2023 |
| COD | 2025 |
- RESAs - are targeted at a wider band of private customers with lower energy consumption needs or other niche requirements. They work by aggregating multiple customers to multiple utility-scale facilities, wind or solar PV farms. This allows customers to procure anywhere from 5 MW to 50 MW, from a group of generating facilities, achieving many of the same benefits as PPAs, but with more flexible terms such as shorter-term commitments.
Key portfolio updates
- Awarded 440 MW onshore wind certificates to explore and develop wind energy resources for two separate projects
- One of the first international companies to secure onshore wind WESCs1 as a 100% foreign-owned company

For PPAs in Chile, DISCOs have the right, but not the obligation to buy up to the contracted volume of the energy supplied by the generator. However, the DISCOs have the obligation to buy contracted energy prior to making spot market purchases and can only turn to the spot market when demand exceeds the contracted volume under existing PPAs. These Andes Renovables PPAs, which were awarded in 2016, have full CPI indexation from that date.
-
- Ckhúri DISCO PPA termination effective 14 July 2023, while Caman PPA has been temporary withdrawn starting 1 June 2023
-
- Late-stage development refers to stage 4 & 5 projects, i.e. those at permit application and pre-construction stage
-
Early-stage development refers to stage 2 & 3 projects, i.e. those at land signing and Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) stage
-
Total Development refers to projects from stage 2 (land signing) through to stage 5 (pre-construction)
