In an era marked by a growing demand for clean and sustainable energy solutions in South Africa, the development of a 315-megawatt (MWp) photovoltaic (PV) plant stands out as an important contributor to the renewable energy landscape. A professional company has been appointed to undertake the environmental authorization (EA) and water use license application (WULA) processes and associated Public Participation Processes (PPP) required for the proposed project for compliance with the National Environmental Management Act (NEMA). This background details the proposed development, and associated exercises undertaken in order to comply with the required authorization process, and acts as a baseline document for all interested and affected parties (I&APs). We will keep you updated and informed about the project through this site.
